Radicchio Caesar Salad with Toasted Garlic Panko
This Radicchio Caesar Salad with Toasted Garlic Panko is far from your average Caesar salad recipe! Tossed in a homemade Caesar dressing, shaved parmesan, and toasted garlic panko breadcrumbs, every bite of this simple salad is packed with flavor.
Making a salad with radicchio means every bite will have strong flavors and a slight bitterness. This is complemented by the creamy homemade Caesar salad dressing and crunchy, buttery toasted panko breadcrumbs. It’s a surprisingly simple salad with bold flavors!
Each element of this radicchio salad recipe can be prepared ahead of time, meaning you can stress less and focus on the main event. It goes so well with more fresh Mediterranean recipes, like Garlic Grilled Shrimp and Steamed Artichokes!
