Method
-
1
Wash the escarole in a basin of cold water, lifting the leaves out so the grit stays behind. Dry well, trim off the tough base and chop into bite-size pieces.
-
2
Blot the chickpeas dry. Warm half the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chickpeas for 7–9 minutes, shaking the pan now and then, until the outsides firm up.
-
3
Quarter the artichokes, halve the olives and slice the sun-dried tomatoes thin. In a large bowl, whisk the remaining oil with the red wine vinegar.
-
4
Core the radicchio and slice it across into ribbons. Soak the ribbons in cold water for 5 minutes, then spin dry together with the escarole.
-
5
Toss the escarole, radicchio, artichokes, olives and tomatoes in the dressing. Just before serving, add the chickpeas and crumble the ricotta salata over the top.
