Chargrilled treviso with white wine and honey dressing

Chargrilled Treviso with White Wine and Honey Dressing is a delightful dish that melds the smoky flavors of grilled Treviso with a tangy and sweet dressing. This recipe is perfect for a light, yet flavorful side dish or appetizer. The blend of white wine, honey, and lemon juice creates a delicious harmony of flavors that will enhance any meal.

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Grill: Start by preheating your grill to a medium-high heat.
2. Prepare the Dressing:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the white wine, lemon juice, and honey until well combined.
- Slowly add the olive oil while continuing to whisk, ensuring the dressing emulsifies and becomes smooth.
- Stir in the finely chopped chives. Set aside.
3. Prepare the Treviso Lettuce:
- Thoroughly wash the Treviso lettuce and pat it dry with a clean towel.
- Cut the Treviso into halves or quarters lengthwise, depending on the size of each head, to create manageable sections for grilling.
4. Grill the Treviso:
- Lightly brush the cut sides of the Treviso with a small amount of olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Place the Treviso sections on the preheated grill, cut-side down.
- Grill each side for about 2-3 minutes or until the leaves are slightly charred and tender. You want a good sear but avoid overcooking to maintain some crispness.
5. Dress and Serve:
- Once grilled, transfer the Treviso to a serving platter.
- Drizzle the white wine and honey dressing generously over the warm Treviso.
- Allow the lettuce to rest for a few minutes, absorbing the dressing and enhancing the flavors.
6. Garnish and Enjoy:
- Optionally, sprinkle a few more chopped chives on top for an extra touch of freshness.
- Serve immediately as a delightful side dish or light appetizer.

Tips:

- Ensure your grill is preheated to a medium-high temperature before placing the Treviso on it for optimal char marks and flavor.

- When whisking the dressing, do so slowly to ensure the honey is well incorporated with the white wine and lemon juice, preventing it from settling at the bottom.

- Drizzle the dressing over the Treviso while it is still warm to help it absorb the flavors more effectively.

- Serve the dish immediately after dressing to maintain the crispness of the chargrilled Treviso and the freshness of the lettuce.

Chargrilled Treviso with White Wine and Honey Dressing is a simple yet sophisticated dish that is sure to impress. The combination of smoky, sweet, and tangy flavors creates an exquisite experience for your taste buds. Enjoy it as a refreshing side or a light appetizer, and savor the wonderful blend of ingredients.
