Ingredients
2 heads radicchio
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 teaspoons rosemary leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Step 2
Cut the radicchio in half lengthwise through the core. Place the halves on a cutting board, cut side down, and cut each half into four wedges, leaving the root end intact to hold the wedges together.
Step 3
Carefully toss the radicchio with the olive oil, vinegar, rosemary leaves, 1 teaspoon salt, and lots of pepper. Let sit 15 minutes.
Step 4
Place the wedges snugly, cut side down, in a gratin dish. (Choose a dish in which the radicchio just fits; it won’t cook properly if there is too much empty space.) Roast 30 to 40 minutes, until the radicchio is tender, slightly crisp, and caramelized on top.
