Salami Cheese Crisps Food

SALAMI CHEESE CRISPS

Steps:

• Place 2 meat pieces, 1/4 cup cheese and 1 Tbsp. chilies on half of each tortilla; fold tortilla over to enclose filling.
• Melt butter in large skillet on medium heat. Add 2 of the tortillas; cook 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until tortillas are lightly browned on both sides and cheese is melted. Repeat with remaining 2 tortillas.
• Cut in half to serve.

SALAMI CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place the salami slices on a baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between each slice. Bake until the edges are crispy and stiff, about 10 minutes. Transfer the salami chips to a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess fat. Serve immediately or store, refrigerated, in an airtight container.

SALAMI CRISPS

Steps:

• Put oven racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat oven to 325°F.
• Arrange salami slices in 1 layer on 2 large baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Bake, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until edges are crisp and beginning to curl, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer slices to a rack to cool. (They will crisp as they cool.)

SALAMI CRISPS WITH SOUR CREAM AND BASIL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Line 2 heavy large baking sheets with aluminum foil. Arrange the salami in a single layer over the baking sheets. Bake until the salami slices are amber brown, watching closely to ensure they brown evenly, about 15 minutes. Transfer the salami crisps to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to absorb the excess oil. Set aside to cool.
• Spoon a dollop of sour cream on top of each salami crisp. Sprinkle the basil over and serve.
• Do-Ahead Tip: The salami crisps can be made 8 hours ahead. Store in airtight containers and keep at room temperature.

GOAT CHEESE AND SALAMI STUFFED DATES

Steps:

• Toast pistachios in a dry small skillet over medium heat, tossing occasionally, until golden brown, 5-8 minutes. Let cool slightly, then finely chop.
• Mix goat cheese, salami, and lemon zest in a medium bowl.
• Slice dates in half lengthwise, taking care not to cut all the way through, and open like a book. Stuff each date with a small scoop of goat cheese mixture.
• Arrange dates, filling side up, on a large plate or platter. Drizzle honey over and top with pistachios.
