Winter Greens with Roasted Citrus Vinaigrette
- 1 lemon
- 2 mandarin oranges, tangerines or blood oranges
- 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 bunch (3/4 pound) Lacinato (or dinosaur) kale, ribs removed, very thinly sliced
- 1 small head radicchio, halved and sliced
- 1 large Belgian endive, halved and sliced
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Cut lemon and oranges in half crosswise and remove any seeds.
Place in a small baking dish and toss with 1 teaspoon of the oil.
Turn cut-side down and roast until tender and lightly browned, about 40 minutes. Allow to cool.
Using a spoon, remove flesh from citrus and place in a blender.
Pour in any juice from the baking pan.
Add honey, salt and pepper, and blend until smooth, adding a tablespoon of water if the mixture is too thick to blend easily.
With the motor running, slowly add remaining 2 tablespoons oil.
Place vinaigrette in a large skillet over medium-low heat.
Add kale and stir until lightly wilted, about 3 minutes.
Add radicchio and endive, and toss until coated and warm. Divide among plates and serve warm or at room temperature.
