  You might expect to find smoked duck breast in a sultry, sensual main-course salad like this one, but here we use smoked turkey, which makes it a lot more affordable and a little bit more robust. Both good things.

  

Ingredients

Makes 4 (main course) servings

  1/3 cup balsamic vinegar

  1 tablespoon packed light brown sugar

  1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

  1 (1-pound) smoked turkey drumstick

  1 large fennel bulb, stalks discarded

  1/2 head radicchio

  1/2 pound firm-ripe black or red plums (2 to 3), thinly sliced

  3 ounces pecans, toasted and cooled

  

Equipment:

An adjustable-blade slicer

  

Step 1

Whisk together vinegar, brown sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a large bowl until sugar has dissolved, then add oil in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified.

  

Step 2

Cut turkey meat from bone, discarding skin and tendons, then thinly slice meat. Add to dressing.

  

Step 3

Quarter fennel bulb lengthwise, then thinly slice using slicer. Slice radicchio in same manner. Add fennel and radicchio to dressing with plums and pecans and toss well. Season with pepper.
