Recipe of the Week
Sauteed Pears, Bacon and Radicchio (Serves 8)
courtesy of PCC Community Markets

Bitter radicchio is perfectly balanced by sweet pears and aged balsamic vinegar in this easy side dish.

Ingredients
1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
2 tablespoons aged balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
8 slices bacon, chopped
4 firm-ripe pears, thickly sliced and seeded
1 large head radicchio, shredded
1/2 cup toasted hazelnuts, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Method
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together mustard, vinegar and oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  2. Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove bacon from the skillet with a slotted spoon, leaving about 1 tablespoon fat in the skillet.
  3. Add pears and radicchio and cook over medium-high heat, stirring gently, until golden brown and just starting to soften, 5 to 7 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper; transfer to a platter.
  4. Drizzle dressing over pear mixture and sprinkle with bacon, hazelnuts and chives. Serve immediately.
