Sautéed Radicchio with White Beans, Prosciutto & Figs

Ingredients: Serves 3-4 people

  • 1 Can of White Beans - I used Great Northern White Beans - drained and rinsed

  • 1 Medium Red Onion - sliced into thin rings

  • 1 Medium Radicchio - sliced thin = about 3.5 cups

  • 2 Cloves of Garlic - pressed

  • 1/2 Cup of Sherry Fino

  • 1/2 Cup of Miso

  • 3 Tbsp of Sweet Balsamico

  • 6 Slices of Prosciutto - cut into approx 3/4 inch pieces

  • 6 Figs - quartered

  • Fresh Marjoram and Thyme - 1tbsp chopped of each

  • Salt and Pepper to taste

  • Olive Oil - approx 1 tbsp

Instructions:

  • Sauté onions in olive oil until slightly caramelized

  • Add radicchio and garlic - sauté until radicchio is wilted

  • Deglace with Sherry

  • Add beans, miso and herbs - simmer for just a few minutes so flavors can mingle and develop

  • Add proscuitto — keep on low heat for just a minute or two until prosciutto changes from bright pink to pale pink. Another option is to lightly fry the prosciutto separately as you would pieces of bacon and then add it to the dish.

  • Add balsamico, salt and pepper if needed and desired and serve with fresh figs.
