PERFECTLY GRILLED RADICCHIO

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.

GRILLED ITALIAN SAUSAGE WITH PEPPERS AND ONIONS



Grilled Italian Sausage with Peppers and Onions image

Italian sausage, bell peppers, and onions made easy on the grill. You can also serve the sausage in hot dog buns and finely chop the veggies once grilled as a "relish". I like to add a squirt of mustard when I serve them this way.

GRILLED RADICCHIO AND SPICY ITALIAN SAUSAGE PIZZA



Grilled Radicchio and Spicy Italian Sausage Pizza image

Provided by Food Network

Time 3h35m

Yield 2 to 3 pizzas

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 heads radicchio
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon red chili flakes
1 head garlic, peeled and finely chopped
Pizza Dough, recipe follows
3 sprigs fresh rosemary, leaves finely chopped
1 pound fresh spicy Italian sausage
4 ounces taleggio cheese, sliced into 2- by 1/2-inch slices
Kosher salt
3 1/2 cups "00" flour
1 teaspoon dry active yeast
1/2 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, for oiling the bowl

Steps:

  • Remove the stems and quarter the radicchio heads. Mix the balsamic, olive oil, chili flakes and chopped garlic to make a marinade. Submerge the radicchio, cut-side down, in the marinade for 1 hour prior to grilling.
  • Crumble the sausage into a medium saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until fully rendered and slightly browned, 8 to 12 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the cooked sausage to a tray lined with paper towels.
  • Remove the radicchio from the marinade, reserving the marinade itself for dressing the finished radicchio. Grill the radicchio over an open flame starting with the cut-side down, and rotating until slightly charred on the outside (we suggest a charcoal grill, but if not using an outdoor grill, a griddle or grill pan would suffice). Once cooked, remove to a tray to cool. When the radicchio is cool, chop into 1-inch squares and toss with the reserved marinade.
  • Roll out the pizza dough into three 12-inch circles, 1/4-inch thick.
  • Start by grilling 1 pizza over medium-high heat on the grill. Once the bottom has a slight char, flip the pizza and top with some of the grilled radicchio, cooked sausage, chopped rosemary and taleggio slices (about 3 per pizza). Cover with the grill lid to melt the cheese and crisp the bottom, just a few minutes. Remove the pizza from the grill with a wide spatula to a cutting board. Let cool for a few minutes, and then slice into 6 or 8 pieces. Repeat with the remaining dough and ingredients.
  • Combine the flour, 3/4 cup water, yeast and sugar in the mixing bowl of a stand mixer. Knead on medium speed for 10 minutes. Place in an oiled bowl and allow the dough to rest for 1 hour, covered, in a draft-free spot.
  • Punch down and shape the dough into two to three 10-ounce balls. Allow to proof on an oiled tray or container covered with a towel or lid until almost doubled in size.

GRILLED SAUSAGES, ONIONS AND PEPPERS



Grilled Sausages, Onions and Peppers image

There is no more reliable guest at a cookout than sausage, roasted over the open fire. But before you grill the meat, get some peppers and onions soft and dark and fragrant in the heat, and use these as a bed on which to serve the links. Italian sausage works beautifully here, as do hot links and bratwurst. If cooking brats, think about simmering them first in beer and onions, then finishing them on the fire.

Provided by Sam Sifton

Categories     barbecues, main course

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound sweet peppers (green, red and yellow, if available) seeded and cut into eighths
2 large yellow onions, peeled and cut into large coins
3 to 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, more to taste
1/4 teaspoon salt, more to taste
2 pounds sweet or hot Italian sausages, or bratwurst or other fresh sausage

Steps:

  • Build a fire in your grill, leaving one side free of coals. When coals are covered with gray ash and the temperature is medium (you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 5 to 7 seconds), you are ready to cook. (For a gas grill, turn all burners to high, lower cover and heat for 15 minutes, then turn burners to medium.)
  • Meanwhile, toss peppers and onions with oil and sprinkle with salt. Lightly prick sausages all over so that they do not burst.
  • Put peppers and onions in a grill basket or directly on the grill, turning occasionally until they are softened and dark at the edges, 10 to 12 minutes. Move them to the side of the grill without coals.
  • Place the sausages on the hot side of the grill, cover and cook, turning occasionally until they are cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Transfer the peppers and onions to a platter and top with the sausages. Drizzle with olive oil and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality sausages: Opt for fresh, artisanal sausages made with premium cuts of meat and natural seasonings. Avoid heavily processed or pre-cooked sausages, as they may not grill as well.
  • Prepare the sausages properly: Before grilling, pat the sausages dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This will help them brown evenly and prevent them from steaming.
  • Preheat your grill: Ensure your grill is preheated to medium-high heat before adding the sausages. This will help sear the outside of the sausages and prevent them from sticking.
  • Grill the sausages in batches: If grilling a large quantity of sausages, cook them in batches to avoid overcrowding the grill. This will ensure even cooking and prevent the sausages from steaming.
  • Flip the sausages frequently: Use tongs to flip the sausages every few minutes to ensure even cooking and prevent them from burning.
  • Cook the sausages to the proper internal temperature: Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the sausage to ensure it has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). This will ensure the sausages are cooked through and safe to eat.
  • Let the sausages rest before serving: Once the sausages are cooked, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute and result in a more tender and flavorful sausage.

Conclusion:

Grilled sausages and radicchio offer a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a main course, appetizer, or even as part of a larger meal.
