What Makes This Recipe Special

Directions
Warm your grill to medium and give the grates a quick brush with some oil to keep things from sticking. While that’s warming up, mix together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, a pinch of salt, and some pepper in a small bowl—this will be your tasty dressing. Cut the radicchio into four wedges, then brush each piece with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle a little salt over them. Place the wedges on the grill and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes per side until they get a nice char. Once done, transfer them to a serving plate, scatter some pistachios and blue cheese over the top, and drizzle with your dressing. Serve it right away and enjoy!
Serving Ideas For Family Meals
Serve warm alongside crusty bread or as a side to grilled meats. It also pairs well with toasted nuts and a drizzle of honey to add a touch of sweetness. A crisp white wine or light red complements the bold flavors beautifully.
Freezing Tips
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Reheat gently in a pan or serve at room temperature to maintain the texture. Avoid microwaving, as it can make the cheese grainy.
