Ingredients

1. 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
2. 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
3. 1/2 garlic clove, finely chopped
4. 1/2 teaspoon thyme leaves
5. Salt and freshly ground pepper
6. 2 large endives, halved lengthwise
7. 1/2 pound Serrano or prosciutto di Parma, thinly sliced
8. 1 tablespoon coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley
9. 4 lemon wedges

Directions

1. 1. In a small saucepan, simmer the sherry vinegar over low heat until reduced to 1 tablespoon, about 5 minutes; let cool. In a bowl, whisk 3 tablespoons of the olive oil with the vinegar, garlic and thyme. Season with salt and pepper.
2. 2. Light a grill or preheat a grill pan. Brush the endives lightly with olive oil, then grill them over low heat until lightly charred, about 3 minutes per side. Thinly slice the endives lengthwise. Arrange the endives in a layer on 1 side of each plate. Arrange the slices of Serrano ham next to the endives, then drizzle with the dressing. Sprinkle the parsley on top and serve with the lemon wedges.
