Total Calories: 331

Ingredients

16 small shallots
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 bunches watercress, stemmed (about 5 cups)

DRESSING:
1 teaspoon Dijon style mustard
1/4 cup fresh tangerine juice
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme
sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Toss the shallots in the olive oil to coat them. Spread the shallots on a baking sheet and roast for 1 hour, or until golden and very soft.

Put the watercress in a large salad bowl.

To prepare the dressing: In a medium bowl, combine the mustard, tangerine juice, and vinegar. Gradually whisk in the olive oil to make an emulsified sauce. Whisk in the thyme, salt, and pepper.

Pour the vinaigrette over the watercress and toss until coated.

Divide the greens among 4 plates and arrange 4 roasted shallots on top of each serving.
