Fattoush is a Levantine dish with roots in Lebanon and its defining characteristic is the inclusion of bits of toasted or fried flat bread in the salad.
Ingredients
2 whole-wheat pita breads, split and torn
¼ cup lemon juice
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon ground pepper
3 cups thinly sliced red cabbage
3 cups chopped endive/escarole lettuce
1 cup grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
2 cucumbers, sliced
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1 cup chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Arrange pita pieces in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet. Bake, stirring once, until crispy, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool to room temperature, about 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk lemon juice, oil, salt and pepper in a very large bowl. Add cabbage, lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, scallions and parsley and toss. Add the pita chips and toss until combined.
