Friend, today I made radicchio escalopes with ricotta cream 💜. It is an easy and quick recipe, perfect for when you want to put something tasty on the table without complicating things.
If you’re looking for tasty chicken escalopes, main courses with radicchio, or recipes with ricotta, this one is a must-try!
The preparation is very simple. I used chicken breast slices, lightly floured them, and browned them in a pan with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. When they were nicely golden, I set them aside. In the same pan, I added sliced radicchio and cooked it until it softened. Then I blended it to get a velvety radicchio cream, and added ricotta to make it even creamier and more delicate.
These radicchio and ricotta escalopes are perfect for an autumnal main course, light yet full of flavor. The contrast between the slightly bitter taste of radicchio and the sweetness of ricotta is delightful. If you want an idea for a quick chicken dinner, a recipe with red radicchio, or an elegant but simple dish, this is your new ally.
Let me know if you try it, I often serve it with a side of baked potatoes or a nice salad 🥗.
It is always a hit!

Blend the cooked radicchio until smooth. Add the ricotta and mix well to obtain a creamy and velvety sauce. Season with salt and, if you like, pepper.
