I like the @erik approach but I would recommend to drawing what you want via passed Canvas to onChildDraw() function. e.g. item background or icon.

@Override 
public void onChildDraw(Canvas c, RecyclerView recyclerView, RecyclerView.ViewHolder viewHolder, float dX, float dY, int actionState, boolean isCurrentlyActive) {
    final ColorDrawable background = new ColorDrawable(Color.RED);
    background.setBounds(0, itemView.getTop(),   itemView.getLeft() + dX, itemView.getBottom());
    background.draw(c);

    super.onChildDraw(c, recyclerView, viewHolder, dX, dY, actionState, isCurrentlyActive);
}

In this approach, you will draw what needed on demand and no need to inflate unused views
