Flank Steak with Radicchio and Plum Salad
This salad from Chef Barton Seaver combines the crisp, bitter crunch of summer radicchio with the taut texture of sliced plums to provide a flattering companion to grilled flank, a steak with a good deal of personality. Adding parsley and nutmeg softens the dish with their cool and comforting aromas.
