Preparation

  1. Preheat coals.
  2. Cut the radicchio heads in half. Brush all over with half the olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  3. Place the radicchio on a rack and grill, turning once, until the leaves are lightly charred and wilted. Sprinkle with the remaining oil, vinegar and thyme leaves and serve.
  • This goes particularly well with chicken, lamb or tuna.
