Grilled Radicchio Steps
To cook the grilled radicchio, start by removing the outer leaves. Wash the leaves thoroughly and dry them with a clean cloth without breaking them.
Heat a cast-iron grill and place the radicchio on top. Let it cook for two minutes on each side.
Meanwhile, put the extra virgin olive oil, salt, and fresh mint leaves in a small bowl.
Mix everything with a teaspoon and set aside for a few minutes.
Transfer the radicchio to a serving dish and dress with the oil prepared earlier.
If desired, you can add a bit of balsamic glaze and some fresh mint leaves.
I recommend preparing the radicchio a couple of hours in advance, so it has time to absorb the flavors better.
