By zboni

Ingredients

• Dressing:
• 1 head radicchio
• 1 small bunch red-leaf lettuce
• seeds from 1 large pomegranate
• 1-1/2 cups chopped walnuts
• 4 oz. goat cheese, crumbled in pieces
• 1/2 cup red wine
• 1 Tbsp. sugar
• 1-1/2 Tbsp. red-wine vinegar
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• salt & pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Toast walnuts in small pan over very low heat for about 15 minutes, tossing occasionally.

Mix wine & sugar in small pot; barely simmer over low heat until reduced by a third, about 15 minutes.

Wash/dry lettuce and radicchio, tear into medium pieces. Combine lettuce, radicchio, walnuts and goat cheese in bowl.

In another bowl, mix wine (still warm), vinegar, oil, salt & pepper. Whisk well.

Toss lettuce with dressing, enough just to coat.

Place on salad plates and sprinkle pomegranate seeds on top.
