Radicchio with Salmon and Shrimp

Step-by-step method

Let’s cook

At a glance

This dish brings together pan-seared salmon and shrimp with tender radicchio and leek in a creamy sauce, all coming together in about 22 minutes. The main trick is searing the salmon pieces just right so they stay tender while the vegetables soften alongside—then everything comes together at the end with a quick simmer in cream. Serve it all over gnocchi for a restaurant-quality meal that feels way easier than it tastes.

  1. 1/4

    Cube the salmon

    Get out some butter or ghee, whichever you prefer, and melt it in a large frying pan. If you like, you can remove the skin from the salmon, though it's not essential. Cut it into cubes.

    Season and sear

    Season the salmon simply with salt and white pepper, then sear it. Once the pieces have turned from dark pink to pale (i.e. cooked through on the outside), take them out of the pan and set aside on a plate.

About this recipe

Radicchio, that leafy chicory, is hugely popular in places like Italy. It works just as well fresh in salads as it does cooked. Its flavour is pleasantly bitter, and that bitterness mellows nicely once you boil, roast or grill it. Besides tasting great, it's also very good for your health. Its season runs roughly from September through the whole winter, sometimes into February or March.
