Radicchio X.O. Prep
Method
Radicchio X.O. Prep
- 1
Trim the radicchio, remove the core, and cut into quarters. Pat dry. Season with 0.5 teaspoon salt and 0.25 teaspoon black pepper.
- 2
In a small bowl, whisk together 1.5 tablespoons lemon juice with 1 tablespoon olive oil to create a bright dressing; set aside.
- 3
In a skillet over medium heat, warm 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add minced garlic (2 cloves) and minced shallot (1 small); sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
- 4
Stir in Shrimp XO sauce (2 tablespoons) and cook 30 seconds to bloom flavors.
- 5
In another skillet, heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Place radicchio quarters cut-side down; sear until charred and wilted, about 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer to a warm platter.
- 6
Return the radicchio to a low heat or keep on the warm plate. Pour the XO aromatics over the radicchio and drizzle with the dressing from step 2; toss gently to coat.
- 7
Stir in lemon zest (1 teaspoon) and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper to taste.
- 8
Finish with toasted pine nuts (0.25 cup), Parmesan shavings (2 tablespoons), and chopped fresh parsley (2 tablespoons). Optional extra drizzle of olive oil before serving.
