Breaded and Fried Goat Cheese to top a simple salad
I can remember the day I fell in love with goat cheese at Otto's in Covington, Kentucky. Their fried goat cheese salad was one of my favorite meals - the goat cheese was creamy and fried to perfection. They stopped serving it years ago much to my dismay, so this is my slightly healthier version of this dish.

Step 1
You'll need the following things :
Panko Bread Crumbs
Paprika
Garlic Powder
Sage
Thyme
White Pepper
Seasoned Salt
Goat Cheese Log Oil
2 Eggs
Flour
Oil
Bagged Lettuce
Dried Cranberries
Dressing of Choice

Mix together 1 cup panko bread crumbs with 1 teaspoon Paprika, Garlic Powder, Sage, Thyme, White Pepper, and Seasoned Salt
Step 2
Slice your goat cheese log into 1/4" thick pieces, wiping the knife with warm water after each slice.

Prep a dredging station. Place 1/2 cup of flour on a plate, 2 eggs (whisked well) into a small bowl, then the panko bread crumbs. Lay out a sheet of parchment or wax paper to place the breaded goat cheese on.
Step 3
Place cheese in flour and flip to coat evenly.
Step 4
Drop the floured cheese into the egg and flip to coat evenly.
Step 5
Lastly coat with panko bread crumbs and set on the paper you have set out. Repeat.
Step 6
Fill the bottom of a large saucepan with oil, we use EVOO. Fry over medium high heat, fry each side for about 2-4 minutes until brown. Try and flip only twice.
Step 7
Prepare a salad place with lettuce mixture and dried cranberries.
Step 8
Top the salad with the fried goat cheese! Or try serving these with marinara sauce.
