Ingredients
For the salad
- 1 head radicchio
- 1/4 cup pignoli (pine) nuts
- 1/4 cup parmigiano reggiano
- 1 Tbsp orange zest
For the dressing
- 1/2 cup fresh parsley minced
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup fresh squeezed orange juice
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Remove core of radicchio, wash and arrange leaves on large platter.
- Toast 1/4 cup pignoli nuts over medium-low heat being careful not to burn. Zest one orange and rough chop the strands.
- Thoroughly mix 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil, 1/4 cup red wine vinegar, 1/4 fresh squeezed orange juice, 1/2 cup minced parsley, 1 tsp kosher salt and a 1/4 tsp black pepper.
- Spoon some of the dressing over the radicchio leaves. Sprinkle the toasted pignoli nuts and orange zest all over the salad. Finally with a vegetable peeler shave the Parmigiano Reggiano on top. Enjoy!
Notes
- Do not overdress the salad. This recipe makes one cup of the vinaigrette which can be served on the side or stored for up to 3 days.
- Pine nuts tend to burn fast. Keep an eye on them at all times when toasting.
- Radicchio needs a lot of salt to cut the bitterness, but adjust according to personal preferences.
