Total Time: 1 hour hour 20 minutes minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoonย salt
- 4 heads Treviso radicchio
- 6 largeย Portobello mushrooms, cleaned (with a small spoon scoop out all of the dark black membranes on the bottom of the cap)
- ยผ cupย red wine vinegar (Iโve also used balsamic vinegar which is a great substitute)
- 4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- 4 salt-packed anchovy fillets, rinsed, drained, and finely chopped
- About ยฝ cup coarsely chopped fresh marjoram leaves
- ยฝ cup extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Cut each head of radicchio in half lengthwise and place them, cut side up, in an 11 x 16-inch baking dish. Remove the Portobello stems and cut them in half lengthwise. Cut the caps in half, and place the caps and stems in the same baking dish. Be sure you have scooped out all the dark black membranes underneath each cap.
- In a small bowl, mix together the vinegar, garlic, anchovies, marjoram, and olive oil. Pour this over radicchio and portobellos and let stand for 1 hour.
- Preheat the broiler.
- Place the portobellos and radicchio on a cookie sheet, reserving the marinade that drips off, and broil until just lightly charred on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn them over and broil for 3 to 4 minutes on the other side. Remove, and set aside until they are cool enough to handle.
- Cut the mushrooms into ยผ-inch-thick strips, and cut the radicchio in half lengthwise. In a large bowl, combine the mushrooms, radicchio, and the reserved marinade. Toss gently to thoroughly coat ingredients with the marinade.
- Spoon the polenta on a large platter, arrange the mushroom-radicchio mixture in the center and serve.
