Chicory, Bacon, and Poached Egg Salad

This chicory, bacon, and poached egg salad is a sophisticated high-protein dish that perfectly balances bold, bitter leaves with the salty crunch of thick-cut bacon. The addition of sautéed wild mushrooms and a hit of aged Parmesan provides a wonderful depth of umami flavour, creating a meal that feels both indulgent and nourishing. It is an excellent choice for a weekend brunch or a light yet satisfying dinner when you want something more substantial than a standard garden salad.

Using a mix of radicchio and frisée provides a beautiful contrast in textures, while the warm dressing helps to slightly soften the heartier leaves. This homemade recipe is packed with nutrients and healthy fats, making it an ideal option for those following a protein-rich diet. Serve it immediately while the poached eggs are still warm and the yolks are ready to create a rich, natural sauce for the greens.

Ingredients for Chicory, Bacon, and Poached Egg Salad

  • 110g Parmesan

  • 1 chalota média, finamente picada

  • 60ml sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar

  • 1 colher de sopa de mel

  • 7 colheres de sopa de azeite de oliva extra-virgem, dividido

  • Sal kosher, pimenta moída na hora

  • 230g slab or thick-cut bacon, cut into 1/2" pieces

  • 2 (8"-long) sprigs rosemary

  • 450g mixed wild mushrooms (such as shiitake, maitake, and/or oyster), woody stems removed

  • 450g chicory (such as radicchio, escarole, and/or frisée), leaves torn into 3" pieces

  • 4 ovos grandes

Finely grate half of the Parmesan into a large bowl. Add shallot, vinegar, honey, and 5 tablespoons oil and whisk well; season dressing with salt and pepper.

Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until brown and beginning to crisp, about 5 minutes. Add rosemary and cook, turning once, until crisp, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon and rosemary to paper towels.

Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to skillet and heat over medium-high. Arrange mushrooms in pan in a single layer and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown underneath, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, toss, and continue to cook, tossing often, until golden brown all over, about 5 minutes. Transfer to bowl with dressing, but don’t toss. Strip rosemary leaves off stems into bowl and add chicory.

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Reduce heat so water is at a bare simmer. Crack an egg into a small bowl; gently slide egg into water. Quickly repeat with remaining eggs. Poach, rotating eggs gently with a large slotted spoon, until whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 3 minutes. Using spoon, transfer eggs to paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.

Toss salad to coat leaves; season with salt and divide among plates. Shave remaining Parmesan over and top with bacon and poached eggs.
