Preparation
- Step 1
Lightly toast the bread, then arrange the slices on a broiler pan lined with foil. Top each slice of toasted bread with a thick slice of the goat cheese. Brush the portions of cheese with half the olive oil and set aside until just before serving time.
- Step 2
Rinse and dry the lettuce, tear it into bite-size pieces and arrange it on each of four salad plates.
- Step 3
Just before serving time mix the vinegar and mustard together, then beat in the remaining three tablespoons of olive oil. Drizzle the dressing over the lettuce on the plates.
- Step 4
Preheat broiler and broil the goat cheese until it is just beginning to color along the edges. Center a portion of goat cheese on toast on each salad, sprinkle with the herbs and pepper and serve at once.

We added hot figs roasted with a balsamic honey drizzle. Constructed on individual plates rather than tossed. Added chopped pistachios. Our guests were over the moon.
