15 minIngredients
2 tablespoons unsalted grass-fed organic butter
2 tablespoons organic extra-virgin olive oil
6 medium-size heads endive (about 1 ¼ pounds/565 g) red, white, or a combination, trimmed and halved lengthwise
Fine sea salt to taste
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 450°F/230°C.
-
In a very large, oven-proof skillet over medium heat, heat the butter and oil. Add the endive, cut side down, and cook until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn the endive and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the skillet in the oven and roast until the endive is tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
-
Remove the skillet from the oven (careful, the handle will be very hot). Sprinkle with parsley and more salt and pepper to taste and serve.
