Baked Goat Cheese Medallions with Orange Honey Topping #CIC

November 20, 2014

Welcome to the November edition of the Crazy Ingredient Challenge! I was so bummed to have missed it last month. With travel, moving and then getting sick, I was pretty out of it for the majority of Setpember & October. If you haven’t visited before, this challenge is to create a recipe with two truly unique ingredients that are not traditionally cooked together. I’m always so excited to share with you the results of the challenge and each month and just keeps getting better and more creative. Spearheaded by the lovely Dawn at Spatula’s On Parade, this is one group of talented chef’s who come up with these recipes each month. You all ROCK!

So I know you’re on the edge of your couch… or chair… or park bench…. November’s ingredients are…… Orange (or citrus) & Breadcrumbs!

I know a few of you looked beyond the ingredients to that cute little cutting board in the back. Isn’t it adorable? I subscribe to Jane.com and I receive daily emails for special deals on housewares, clothes, jewelry and more. I love Jane.com!!  Not only did I get that personalized cutting board, but I’ve also bought an adorable blue and white chevron camera bag, a couple of polka dot blouses, football bracelets and even shoes. If you like getting good deals on cute stuff, go sign up!!

Now back to our regularly scheduled recipe…… This one was a bit of a head scratcher, but after giving it some thought, I decided to go with an appetizer. This idea was inspired by the Warm Goat Cheese Salad at Red Rock Brewery in Murray, UT.  The goat cheese in the salad is breaded and baked, then place on a bed of lettuce with tomatoes, pears and a pesto dressing. Now you’re wondering how I’d include orange in that?  Well, read onto the recipe my good folks….  I added orange not only in the breading, but also for the topping!  It was wonderful!!

  • 1 Large egg (beaten)
  • zest of one medium orange
  • juice of 1/2 medium orange
  • 1 tablespoon honey

Optional

  • 1/4-1/2 teaspoon corn startch (for thickening)

Directions

Step 1
Pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees.
Step 2

Step 3
Dip the goat cheese medallion in the egg then cover in the bread crumb mix. Place on parchment on a cookie sheet. Repeat with each of the remaining medallions.

Step 4
Bake, uncovered, in the pre-heated oven for 15 minutes. Mix the orange juice with honey. It will be quite runny and you can allow it to set up in the fridge while the medallions are baking. If you want a warm topping, mix the orange juice, honey and corn starch after the goat cheese is baked. Microwave for 15 seconds. Use the topping immediately.

I thought it would be cute to lay them on orange slices for a decorative effect. Plus, I love orange slices anyway. You’re probably wondering how they tasted. I think the orange zest added quite the zing to the breading and the honey orange topping gave it good sweetness to offset the tartness of the goat cheese.  Even hubby, who hates goat cheese, gave it a whirl. Yeah, he didn’t like it all that much, but I guess I hoped my orange addition would change his mind. Maybe next month………………
