Grilled Radicchio Salad


Description

When radicchio is grilled, the sugars caramelize and it turns into something exquisitely sweet and smokey!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 head Treviso radicchio
  • 1 head romaine lettuce
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 TBS red wine vinegar
  • 2 TBS honey
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced to a paste
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • 1/4 cup smoked mozzerella, diced

Instructions

  1. 1- Cut the radicchio and romaine in half lengthwise, but leave the root on so that they hold together. Wash them and set aside.
  2. 2- Whisk together the lemon juice, vinegar, honey, garlic, and olive oil. Paint the dressing onto all sides of the lettuces generously with a brush or spoon, reserving the extra dressing. Then sprinkle the lettuces with salt.
  3. 3- Grill the lettuces on a hot grill for 3 minutes on each side, or until charred but not burnt. You could alternatively put them in a 450 oven for 5 minutes per side.
  4. 4- Chop up the lettuces and discard the roots. Mix in the extra dressing and the smoked cheese.

Notes

  • All you need to round this salad out are some thick slabs of grilled bread.
  • Not Included In the Box: red wine vinegar, honey, olive oil, kosher salt
