   8       md           Heads Belgian endive
   3       tb           Unsalted butter
   2       tb           Flavorless cooking oil
     1/2   c            Low-sodium chicken broth OR
                        -Water
     1/2   ts           Salt

  CUT EACH ENDIVE IN HALF lengthwise and set aside. Heat the butter and oil
  in a large skillet over medium heat on the stove. Add the endive in one
  layer and cook until the outer leaves are nicely browned, about 7 minutes.
  Turn endives and brown the other side, about 4 minutes. (Do this in two
  batches, if necessary.) Add the broth, sprinkle with salt and cook until
  the liquid is reduced, about 10 minutes. Transfer the endive and its juices
  to a serving platter. Serve immediately.
