Ingredients
Endive and Radicchio Salad
- Ingredients
- 9 ozs turkey breasts
- 5 Tbsps olive oil
- 1 tsp Ras el hanout
- ½ pomegranate
- 2 mild green Hungarian wax peppers
- 2 Tbsps balsamic vinegar
- 1 tsp Mustard
- 1 tsp honey
- salt
- peppers
- 2 Endive
- 2 red Endive (eg., radicchio; Treviso, when available)
- 2 small onions
Cut turkey breast into very thin strips.
In a bowl, mix 1 teaspoon olive oil with Ras el hanout. Add turkey strips, refrigerate and marinate at least 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, cut open pomegranate and separate out seeds.
Rinse peppers and remove stems, seeds and ribs.
Cut peppers into rings.
In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, mustard and honey and season with a little salt and pepper. Slowly whisk in 4 tablespoons oil until emulsified.
Rinse endive and radicchio and separate into individual leaves. Arrange leaves on a serving plate.
Peel onions and cut into 5 mm (1/8-inch) thick rings. In a non-stick pan, heat remaining olive oil over low heat. Cook onions until golden-brown, about 2 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
Add turkey slices to the pan and cook, stirring, until beginning to brown, 4-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Divide turkey, pepper and onions over the salad, and drizzle with vinaigrette.
