How to prepare radicchio with bacon in the air fryer
Let’s start preparing radicchio with bacon cooked in the air fryer. Clean the radicchio, remove the damaged outer leaves, and wash it well under running water.
Remove the end of the root and cut each head in half and, if large, cut each half into two parts. Place a baking tray in the basket of the air fryer.
Wrap the radicchio with one or two slices of bacon depending on the size, and place the radicchio with the bacon in the tray you placed inside the air fryer basket.
Sprinkle with pepper and add a few puffs of oil on the leaves. You can also brush them, so they don’t dry out too much.
Cook at 356°F for 10 minutes, the cooking time may vary depending on the type of air fryer you have.
Serve the radicchio with bacon hot.
