Wilted Tuscan Salad (Vetri)

Makes 4 servings

1/4 cup thinly sliced pancetta or bacon (see Note)

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

4 cups mixed lettuces

1 tablespoon each: balsamic and sherry vinegars

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

1 to 3 large eggs, lightly beaten, to taste (see Note)

1. In a small pan over medium heat, cook the pancetta in the butter until crisp, about 10 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss the lettuces, vinegars, salt and pepper to taste.

3. When the pancetta is crisp, add the eggs to the pan and stir until softly scrambled but still a bit runny. Scrape egg mixture into the bowl with greens. Toss and serve.

Note: It is important not to cook the eggs too much. They should be runny to blend with the oil and vinegar (messy, but tasty). If you substitute American bacon for unsmoked pancetta, blanch it in boiling water for 1 to 2 minutes. You can also use prosciutto.

Per serving: 163 calories, 3 grams protein, 3 grams carbohydrates, 2 grams sugar, 16 grams fat, 72 milligrams cholesterol, 93 milligrams sodium, 1 gram dietary fiber.
