Bread salad

Reviews: 198

Ingredients:

1 head radicchio
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
½ red onion, very thinly sliced
6 fresh basil leaves, torn
6 cups Garlic Croutons
2 cups diced cucumbers
2 cups large-diced vine-ripened red, yellow, or multicolored beefsteak or plum tomatoes
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
¼ cup sherry vinegar
Juice of ½ lemon
2 ounces Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, shaved (about 2 tablespoons)

How to make
Bread salad

Prepare a charcoal or gas grill by spraying the grilling rack with nonstick vegetable spray. Heat the grill until medium-hot.
Cut the radicchio in half, leaving the core intact. Brush the olive oil over one half of the radicchio and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Set the other half aside.
Lay the oiled radicchio on the grill, flat side down, and grill for about 3 minutes, or until lightly charred. Flip and repeat on the other side. The radicchio will be raw in the center. Let the radicchio cool, slice it very thin, and transfer to a salad bowl. Add the onion and basil to the bowl
Tear the reserved radicchio half into bite-sized pieces and add to the bowl. Add the Garlic Croutons, cucumbers, and tomatoes to the salad bowl.
Pour the extra virgin olive oil, vinegar, and lemon juice over the salad and toss to mix. Season to taste with salt and pepper and top with the shaved cheese.
