Grilled Broccoli Rabe And Radicchio With Pancetta Dressing Topped With A Soft Cooked Egg Recipes

BROCCOLI RABE WITH GARLIC AND PANCETTA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add broccoli rabe and cook until just bright green, then immediately remove and plunge into ice water. Drain and set aside.
• In a skillet, over medium-high heat, saute the pancetta until lightly-crisp, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, 2 T olive oil and pepper flakes. Saute until garlic is slightly golden, about 1 minute. Add broccoli and more oil if needed. Toss and cook until tender and heated through. Remove from heat and add lemon juice. Transfer to a platter and garnish with more pepper flakes, parmesan and/or bread crumbs.

GRILLED BROCCOLI RABE

Steps:

• Immerse the broccoli rabe in water and let soak for 10 minutes.
• Preheat a grill to medium.
• Remove the broccoli rabe from the water but DO NOT shake off the excess. Toss with some olive oil, salt and crushed red pepper and lay in an even single layer on the grill. Cook until the rabe starts to lightly char and become tender, 3 to 4 minutes per side. If it starts to char a little too quickly, drizzle or spray a few drops of water on it.
• Serve hot or at room temperature.

GRILLED BROCCOLI RABE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Set up an ice bath nearby. Place half of the broccoli rabe into the boiling water and cook for 1 minute, then remove with tongs to the ice bath to stop cooking. Repeat with remaining broccoli rabe. Place broccoli rabe into a large colander to drain.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-low heat, and lightly oil grate.
• Whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, crushed red pepper flakes, and salt in a small bowl. Toss drained broccoli rabe with oil mixture, then place onto hot grate.
• Grill, turning occasionally, until thick stems have softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove thinner leafy pieces as they become done to prevent burning. Remove to a serving platter.

GRILLED RADICCHIO

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Place radicchio in a large bowl. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and salt; toss to coat.
• Whisk together remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, mustard, and vinegar in a separate bowl. Set aside.
• Grill radicchio on the preheated grill for 3 minutes on each side. Transfer to a serving dish and drizzle reserved dressing over the top. Serve immediately.

GRILLED BROCCOLI RABE AND RADICCHIO WITH PANCETTA DRESSING TOPPED WITH A SOFT-COOKED EGG

Steps:

• 1. Heat the oven to 325°F. Lightly oil and salt the day-old bread and bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool, tear into pieces, and process in the food processor until finely ground; set aside.
• 2. In a medium skillet, heat the pancetta and cook over medium-high heat for 5 minutes until lightly golden brown. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. In a medium bowl, mix the vinegar, mustard seeds, red pepper flakes, sugar, and thyme. Whisk in the melted butter and add the red onions, fennel, and pancetta. Set the pancetta vinaigrette aside.
• 3. In a large bowl, toss the broccoli rabe with the radicchio leaves, oil, and garlic; add salt to taste. Heat a grill or grill pan until hot but not smoking. Put the greens (in batches) on the grill for 30 seconds, turning them over frequently until just wilted; transfer to a large bowl. Continue until all of the broccoli rabe and radicchio are grilled and toss them with 4 tablespoons of the pancetta vinaigrette.
• 4. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat and use a slotted spoon to lower the eggs into the water. Adjust the heat to maintain a simmer and cook the eggs for 5 minutes. Fill a medium bowl with ice and water, then remove the cooked eggs from the pan into the ice water bath. When the eggs are cool enough to handle, gently crack the shell all over, start to peel, and intermittently submerge in the ice bath (if they're a bit too hot) and continue to peel.
• 5. To serve, portion the grilled broccoli rabe and radicchio onto 4 serving plates, mounding it in the center of each plate. Put 5 Parmigiano shavings on top of the greens, then set one whole soft-cooked egg on top. Drizzle the remaining vinaigrette on top of the egg and around the plate and top generously with the breadcrumbs.
