Shredded-Greens and Citrus Salad image

A sprightly blend of Brussels sprouts, radicchio, endives, oranges, and walnuts is refreshingly bright and crunchy in this cross between a slaw and kale salad. For crisp yet tender bites, rub the radicchio and Brussels sprouts with salt to relax them.

Time 30m

Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup walnut halves or pieces
8 ounces Brussels sprouts, trimmed and thinly sliced lengthwise (1 1/2 cups)
1 small head radicchio (8 ounces), cored and thinly sliced (1 1/2cups)
Kosher salt (we use Diamond Crystal) and freshly ground pepper
3 endives, trimmed and thinly sliced lengthwise (2 cups)
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 oranges, peels and pith removed, cut into supremes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread walnuts on a rimmed baking sheet in a single layer. Toast until slightly darkened and fragrant, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • In a large bowl, toss Brussels sprouts and radicchio with 1 teaspoon salt. Rub mixture between your palms until greens soften slightly and turn shiny. Toss in endives. In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, lemon juice, and oil; season generously with salt and pepper. Pour dressing over greens, tossing to evenly coat. Top with walnuts and orange supremes; serve.
