4 SERVINGS

Ingredients:
1 cup Chèvre (goat cheese)
1/4 cup Olive oil
4 Thyme sprigs
1/2 cup Bread crumbs, dry
1/4 cup Walnuts, finely chopped

For the Vinaigrette:

Shape the goat cheese into eight (1-ounce, 28 g) patties.

Marinate the patties in the olive oil and thyme. Refrigerate for 2 hours.

Combine the bread crumbs and walnuts. Roll the patties in this mixture. Place them on a sheet pan with parchment paper and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Combine vinegar and mustard and slowly whisk in the oils until creamy. Correct the seasoning and set aside.

Pan fry the goat cheese in the clarified butter until golden brown and hot.

Toss the baby greens in the vinaigrette and divide evenly among chilled plates. Place 2 goat-cheese patties on top of each plate of greens, and garnish with chives.
