Escarole is a tender, leafy green that's often underappreciated. A few minutes of pan-frying is all it takes to soften the leaves while preserving their vitamins. In this recipe, red onion and wine vinegar add a touch of sweetness and tartness to the escarole, counteracting its slightly bitter flavor. It's a great light side dish for any meat, poultry, or fish.
