Ingredients

4 slices thick-cut bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons sherry-wine vinegar

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 teaspoon sugar

1 large or 2 small heads frisee, washed and dried, trimmed and torn into bite-sized pieces (about 6 cups)

1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, washed and dried

2 ribs celery, thinly sliced on the diagonal

Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Preparation

Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp and fat has rendered. Transfer bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate and set aside. Remove and discard all but 1 tablespoon of bacon fat from the skillet. Reduce heat to low; add olive oil, vinegar, lemon juice and sugar. Cook, stirring, until sugar has dissolved and dressing is well combined.

Combine frisee, parsley, and celery in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Toss salad with dressing and reserved bacon; serve immediately.
