Ingredients

2 heads Belgian endive, quartered lengthwise
2 small heads radicchio, quartered lengthwise
Salt and pepper
1/4 pound sliced prosciutto, cut slices in 1/2 on an angle across the center
Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing
2 dried figs, finely chopped
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar

Directions

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.

I enjoyed it
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

My husband didn't but he's a picky eater so that didn't surprise me. I could not find figs out of season (not uncommon for... the area we live in) so I substituted with dates. I'll make it again for myself.Read more

Tasty without the Carbs
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I make this chicken recipe once a week. I do not use the flour, I find that the egg great for glue without the flour (x-tra... carbs). I also use sliced almonds instead of hazelnuts and use Half & Half instead of milk. The milk has more carbs. It is really yummy!Read more

Delicious!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I loved this recipe including the radicchio although my spouse didn't like the second. I wrap it entirely w/a whole piece of... prosciutto vs. the 1/2. Wasn't enough & had fallen apart. I have made this numerous times & frequently cut it in half & only use the endive for lunch for myself. Great recipe. I would guess that it would be adults that would have a palate for this recipe.Read more

Wonderful first course
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I love this recipe. Like some others, I like it better with more fig than the recipe calls for, and I prefer the endive to... the radicchio. The reduction is excellent and makes a great presentation, especially when serving special or company meals. Will make this again!Read more
