Radicchio With Smoked Mozzarella Balsamic Vinegar And Prosciutto Recipes

SAUTEED RADICCHIO WITH HONEY AND BALSAMIC VINEGAR

Steps:

• Rinse radicchio (leave some water still clinging to leaves). In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add radicchio and season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing, until tender, about 4 minutes. Add vinegar and honey and stir to combine.

BEET AND RADICCHIO SALAD WITH GOAT CHEESE AND PISTACHIOS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• In a large bowl, toss together the beets, 2 tablespoons oil, 1/2 tablespoon vinegar, and some salt and pepper. Arrange beets in a single layer on baking sheet and cover with foil. Bake for 20 minutes, then uncover and bake until tender and golden around edges, about 30 minutes more. Cool; transfer to a small bowl.
• With mortar and pestle, or the back of a knife, mash garlic with 1/2 teaspoon salt to form a paste. In a small bowl, whisk together with remaining 2 tablespoons vinegar, then remaining 6 tablespoons oil and the tarragon. Season with pepper and additional salt, if necessary.
• Toss beets with 2 tablespoons of the vinaigrette. In a large bowl, combine radicchio, endive and parsley. Toss with remaining vinaigrette. Add beets and goat cheese, and toss gently. Serve garnished with pistachios.

PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED ENDIVE AND RADICCHIO WITH BALSAMIC-FIG REDUCTION

Steps:

• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Season the quartered pieces endive and readicchio with salt and pepper. Wrap each section with a half slice of ham. Brush the wrapped sections with extra-virgin olive oil and grill 7 to 8 minutes, turning every couple of minutes, until ham is crispy and lettuce sections are tender.
• Place figs and vinegar in a pot and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer. Reduce the vinegar down to a few tablespoons, until the fig pieces are soft and vinegar is thick, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Arrange the lettuce on individual plates or a serving dish and spoon the fig and balsamic reduction over the lettuce, drizzling back and forth over the plate.

GRILLED RADICCHIO AND CANTALOUPE SALAD

Steps:

• For the Lemon-Lime Dressing: Add the yogurt, lemon and lime zest and juice and the honey to a small bowl. Whisk together well and season to taste with salt and pepper. Reserve in the fridge if not using right away.
• For the Salad: Preheat an outdoor grill to medium. Place the cantaloupe and radicchio on baking sheets and brush with the olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the cantaloupe and radicchio on the grill (you may have to do this in batches) and grill the cantaloupe until you see grill marks, 1 to 2 minutes a side. Grill the radicchio until soft and browned on the outside, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Cut the cantaloupe into cubes.
• Arrange a bed of baby arugula on a platter, top with the grilled cantaloupe and radicchio and drizzle with the dressing.

RADICCHIO WITH SMOKED MOZZARELLA, BALSAMIC VINEGAR, AND PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Put oven rack in upper third of oven and preheat oven to 425°F.
• Arrange radicchio wedges, cut sides up, in a 2 1/2-quart shallow glass or ceramic baking dish (11 by 7 inches), then drizzle with oil and vinegar and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Roast radicchio, turning over once or twice, until wilted and tender, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Arrange cheese over radicchio, then arrange prosciutto over cheese and roast until cheese is just melted, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

SEARED RADICCHIO WITH BALSAMIC AND PARMESAN

Steps:

• Cut each radicchio through the core into 4 even wedges. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Place the radicchio, cut-side down, in the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Sear the radicchio until the bottoms brown and wilt slightly, about 3 minutes. Turn the wedges over and sear the other sides, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the radicchio to a plate. Add the balsamic vinegar to the pan and boil until syrupy and reduced by about half, about 1 minute. Return the radicchio to the pan and toss to glaze with the balsamic syrup. Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the radicchio among 4 plates. Using a vegetable peeler, shave large pieces of cheese over the top. Serve warm.
