  2. Dip the cheese slices in the egg white, then into the bread crumb mixture, turning to coat on all sides and pressing to adhere. Place on a plate, cover with plastic and refrigerate 30 minutes to 1 hour.

  3. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

  4. In a bowl, combine the vinegar, shallots , garlic, herbs, salt, and pepper. Slowly add the oil, whisking to make an emulsion .

  5. Place the greens and orange segments in a large bowl and toss lightly with dressing to taste. Adjust seasoning to taste. Divide among 4 salad plates.

  6. On a small, lightly greased baking sheet, bake the cheese rounds until golden brown and softened, about 5 minutes. Remove and transfer 1 round to each salad. Sprinkle the pine nuts and ham over the top of each salad, and garnish with the parsley sprigs and chives.

  7. Serve immediately with warm croutons.
