Grilled Endive Salad Recipes

GRILLED SALMON SALAD IN ENDIVE CUPS WITH CAVIAR

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine salmon, mayonnaise, sour cream, capers, gherkins, dill, salt and pepper. With a sharp knife, cut off the base of the endive and separate the leaves. Use a teaspoon to fill the end of each endive leaf with salad.
• To serve, arrange on a platter and top each leaf with salmon roe or wasabi caviar.

GRILLED BELGIAN ENDIVE

Steps:

• Heat an outdoor grill or stove top grill pan over high heat.
• Trim the tough, woody bottom of the endive leaving just enough for the leaves to remain connected. Cut the endives in half, lengthwise. Combine the oil and 1/2 tablespoon fresh oregano. Brush the cut sides of the endive with the oil oregano mixture.
• Brush grill grates or grill pan lightly with olive oil. Grill the endives on the grill by placing them cut side down and cooking until the edges are browned and curled, about 3 - 4 minutes. Remove to serving dish and drizzle with balsamic vinegar, remaining oregano, salt and pepper.

GRILLED RADICCHIO AND ENDIVE

Steps:

• Heat grill until it is medium hot. Slice the radicchio lengthwise into six wedges. Slice the Belgian endives lengthwise into four wedges. Using a pastry brush, brush the olive oil over all sides of the radicchio and endive wedges. Sprinkle radicchio and endive wedges with salt and pepper. Place the radicchio and endive wedges on the grill, away from direct flame. Cook, turning occasionally, until golden and tender, 6 to 8 minutes depending on heat of grill. Serve immediately.

WATERCRESS, ENDIVE, AND GRILLED-PEACH SALAD

• Add Belgian endives, stemmed watercress, and bocconcini or mozzarella. Toss to coat. Divide among plates; arrange peaches next to salad.
