Welcome to my kitchen, today we're making a salad that is fast and quick.

We're using radicchio, which is not the traditional reddish-purple but rather greenish-whitish with touches of purple.

Cut the radicchio in half and then cut it into segments, keeping it in quarters, not too big or too small.

Place the radicchio on a plate.

Heat a pan for the dressing, ensuring it's not too hot to avoid burning the oil.

Slice 2-5 garlic cloves, depending on your preference.

Add the sliced garlic to the heated olive oil in the pan and let it cook until it starts to brown, keeping an eye on it to prevent burning.

Once the garlic is dancing and brown, add vinegar generously over the salad.

Quickly add more olive oil to stop the cooking of the garlic.

Pour the warm garlic vinaigrette over the salad.

Sprinkle salt over the radicchio slices.

Dust the salad with pimenton using a colander to create an even layer.

Add a sprinkle of sumac for an extra touch.

Finish with another drizzle of olive oil.
