Steps:
- Set up your grill for even medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, distribute the coals evenly. If using a gas grill, heat both sides evenly.
- In a small saucepan set on the grill, melt the butter with the clove of smashed garlic. Remove the garlic.
- Place the torn baguette in a mixing bowl and pour the melted garlic butter over the top. Toss to coat the bread and season with salt and pepper. Put the croutons in a cast-iron pan and place on the grill. Cover the grill and bake until golden brown and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes.
- In the meantime, in a mason jar, add the lemon juice, olive oil, grated garlic, anchovies, Dijon and red pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper and vigorously shake to combine.
- Remove the croutons from the grill and set aside. Brush the kale leaves and the cut side of the endive and escarole with some of the lemon vinaigrette. Place on the grill, cut-side down, and char for about 2 minutes.
- Remove from the grill, slice into bite-sized pieces and put in a large serving bowl. Add the croutons and chives and dress with the remainder of the vinaigrette. Add Parmesan and toss to combine. Serve.
SHREDDED-GREENS AND CITRUS SALAD
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.

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.
CITRUS AND GREENS SALAD WITH WONTON CROUTONS
Steps:
- Grate a teaspoon of zest from the orange and set aside in a small bowl.
- To make the citrus supremes: Using a paring knife, cut off 1/2-inch from both ends of the orange and grapefruit and stand them upright so they sit flat on the cutting board. Make downward cuts, following the contour of the fruit, to remove the entire pith and peel. Hold the orange in your hand over the bowl with the zest (to catch the juice) and carefully slice between the membranes to remove the segments. Squeeze the orange remnants to release the remaining juice. Place the orange supremes in a separate bowl and set aside. Repeat with the grapefruit, adding the juices to the zest bowl for a total of about 3 tablespoons juice. Set aside the orange and grapefruit supremes.
- To make the salad dressing: Into the bowl with the reserved citrus juice and zest, add the mustard, vinegar, honey, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds black pepper. Whisk in the olive oil.
- Place the kale in a large serving bowl. Add the onions and drizzle with the dressing. Toss to coat. Season with salt if needed. Top with the citrus supremes, sesame seeds and Wontons. Drizzle with more dressing, as needed. Serve immediately.
- Heat about 2 inches neutral oil in a large saucepan to 365 degrees F and fill a small bowl with water. Set a wire rack over a baking sheet and set aside.
- Combine the goat cheese, chives, honey, a pinch of salt and several grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Mash with a spoon to combine.
- To form the wontons: Lay out the wonton wrappers and add 1 teaspoon filling to the center of each. To seal, dip your finger in the water and wet the perimeter of the wrapper. With your thumb and forefinger, fold 2 opposite corners of the wrapper in half and then bring them together to meet in the middle. Pinch to seal. Repeat with the remaining 2 opposite corners to create a four-cornered star.
- Add half of the wontons to the oil and fry, turning occasionally, until crisp and deep golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on the wire rack. Season with salt. Repeat with the second batch of wontons.

Tips:
- Choose the right greens: Use hearty greens like kale, collard greens, or Swiss chard for a salad that will hold up well. If you prefer milder greens, try spinach, arugula, or butter lettuce.
- Shred the greens finely: This will help the dressing coat the greens evenly and make the salad easier to eat.
- Use a variety of citrus fruits: This will give the salad a complex and flavorful taste. Try using a combination of oranges, grapefruits, lemons, and limes.
- Don't be afraid to add other ingredients: This salad is a great base for adding other ingredients like nuts, seeds, dried fruit, or cheese. Get creative and experiment with different combinations.
- Make the dressing ahead of time: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. The dressing can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best enjoyed fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, store the greens and dressing separately and toss them together just before serving.
