  3. Pour the chicken stock into a pot, and simmer over low heat without bringing it to a boil.
  4. Add 1 tablespoon of oil and the garlic into a different pot, then saute until fragrant. Add the mushrooms, and briefly stir-fry. Transfer to a plate.
  5. Add 1 tablespoon of oil and the butter to the same pot. Add the shallots (or onion), and stir-fry until lightly browned.
  6. Set aside a handful of radicchio, add the rest into the pot, and stir-fry.
