    How to Make Crispy Goat Cheese Medallion Salad

    1. Prepare Goat Cheese

    Take the fresh goat cheese and cut it crosswise into 8 even slices. Press each slice into a 5/8 inch thick circle to ensure uniform cooking and presentation.

    2. Prepare Coating Mixture

    Prepare the coating mixture by whisking together the crushed pork rinds, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried oregano leaves, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes in a shallow bowl.

    3. Prepare Egg Mixture

    In a separate shallow bowl, whisk together the egg and heavy cream until well combined.

    4. Coat Goat Cheese Slices

    Dip each goat cheese slice into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated, then dredge it in the pork rind mixture. Make sure each slice is evenly coated with the pork rind mixture.

    5. Fry Goat Cheese Medallions

    Heat the lard or avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat until it is shimmering. Carefully add the coated goat cheese slices to the skillet and fry them for about 1 minute per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.

    6. Assemble Salad

    While the goat cheese is frying, divide the mixed salad greens among 4 plates. Once the goat cheese medallions are perfectly crispy and golden, place two medallions on top of the greens on each plate.
