While this recipe is made in a skillet over a stove, there’s no reason you can’t take it outside to the grill as the weather warms up. Seared endive is a perfect side for any grilled meat or vegetable main course. Try pairing it with marinated chicken or as a topping for portobello burgers.
Seared Endive
This is a wonderfully simple yet elegant way to enjoy your vegetables. Crisply caramelized, slightly sweet edges contrast with refreshing lemon for a complex and scrumptious side dish to serve up with fish.
