Are you looking for a special dish that is both elegant and easy to prepare? My braised chicory in a fine orange-ginger reduction is just for you!

This recipe is not only healthy and light, but also a real highlight on the plate that comes together quickly in your kitchen. Without any complicated convenience products, you can conjure up a wonderful taste experience that is ideal for a quick dinner or a fine side dish. Grab your pan and let's cook something special together – meow, this will be delicious!
Ingredients
Preparation

Wash the chicory (2), trim the base slightly, and halve the heads lengthwise.
Juice the orange (1) and grate the ginger (10 g) very finely.


Melt the butter (15 g) in a pan over medium heat.
Place the halved chicory (2) in the pan, cut side down, and sear for about 3 minutes until golden brown.


Deglaze with the freshly squeezed orange juice (1), the grated ginger (10 g), the honey (10 g), and a pinch of sea salt (2 g).
Reduce the heat and let the chicory (2) braise with the lid closed for about 8 minutes, until the liquid has reduced to a glossy syrup.


Finally, toss everything gently so that the chicory (2) is evenly coated with the fine reduction.
