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

      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.
