Categories     appetizer

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 heads radicchio
12 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
3 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
2 cups extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1 pound mozzarella, cut into 16 pieces
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Cut the radicchio in quarters lengthwise, being sure to keep some of the stem attached to each quarter. Trim off any dark bits of stem. Submerge the radicchio quarters in ice water for 1 hour to remove some bitterness. Put a plate on top of the radicchio to keep them under water.
  • In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients except the mozzarella. Mix well.
  • Prepare a hot fire in your grill, or heat a cast iron grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Drain the radicchio and place them on paper towels to absorb remaining water. Open up the leaves and spoon the olive oil mixture inside. Place the radicchio quarters on a baking sheet and pour the remaining marinade mixture. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Grill the radicchio until browned on the outside but still raw in the center, 3 to 5 minutes, turning occasionally. Be careful, as the oil mixture may flame up.
  • When the radicchio begins to brown, pull from the grill, open up a section of each portion and place a slice of mozzarella inside. Place quarters back onto the sheet pan and place the pan directly on the grill for 5 minutes to melt the cheese. Drizzle any leftover dressing over the top of the grilled radicchio and serve warm.
  • If making radicchio in advance: Before the party, have the radicchio drained and marinated in the vinaigrette in the refrigerator.

Categories     Bon Appétit     Salad     Bacon     Shallot     Mustard     Radicchio     Plum     Olive     Fall     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Side

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 slices bacon
1 small shallot, finely chopped
3 tablespoons sherry vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 head of radicchio, leaves separated, larger leaves torn
4 plums, cut into wedges
1/4 cup Gaeta olives

Steps:

  • Cook bacon in dry medium skillet over medium-low heat, turning occasionally, until crisp, 8-12 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
  • Reduce heat to low and cook shallot in same skillet, stirring often, until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add vinegar, oil, mustard, and 1 Tbsp. water and whisk until smooth.
  • Toss radicchio, plums, and olives in a large bowl. Drizzle dressing over; season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
  • Transfer salad to a platter, then crumble bacon over.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe plums: Look for plums that are deeply colored and slightly soft to the touch. Avoid plums that are bruised or have blemishes.
  • Use a grill basket: This will help keep the radicchio and plums from falling through the grates of the grill.
  • Cook the radicchio and plums over medium heat: This will help prevent them from burning.
  • Don't overcrowd the grill: If you're grilling a lot of radicchio and plums, do it in batches so that they have enough room to cook evenly.
  • Serve the salad warm or at room temperature: This is when the flavors are at their best.

Conclusion:

Grilled radicchio and plum salad is a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed all summer long. The smoky flavor of the grilled radicchio pairs perfectly with the sweet and juicy plums. This salad is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, potassium, and fiber.
