Ingredients
For The Salad Dressing:
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 4 tablespoons lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt plus more to taste
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
For The Salad:
- 1 head iceberg lettuce sliced and rinsed (~7-8 cups)
- 1 large ripe tomato sliced
- ½ cup ham slices* julienned - about ¼ lb or 5 slices of ham
- ½ cup Swiss cheese julienned - 5-6 slices
- ½ cup green olives pitted and chopped
- ¼ cup pecorino romano grated or grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- To make the dressing, whisk garlic, dried oregano, and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl. Gradually add the olive oil while whisking constantly to form an emulsion. Stir in vinegar, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Whisk until thoroughly combined.
- To assemble the Columbia restaurant salad, place iceberg lettuce, sliced tomatoes, julienned ham and Swiss cheese, and green olives in a large bowl.
- Drizzle the salad with the dressing. Give it a toss until combined. Sprinkle it with Romano cheese.
- Taste for seasoning, add more if necessary, and serve.
Notes
- I intentionally included less salt in the salad dressing since this salad contains many salty ingredients, like ham, Swiss cheese, salty green olives, and Romano cheese. Be sure to give it a taste right after mixing it and adjust it according to your taste buds.
- Yields: This recipe yields a large bowl of salad (about 7-8 cups), which is ideal for 6 servings as a side dish.
- Ham: The original recipe uses baked ham. If you have some on hand, go ahead and use it. Otherwise, deli-style ham slices are a good substitution. You can also use deli-style chicken/turkey breast or even shrimp.
- A word on salt: I intentionally included less salt in the salad dressing since this salad contains many salty ingredients, like ham, Swiss cheese, salty green olives, and Romano cheese. Be sure to give it a taste right after mixing it and adjust it according to your taste buds.
- Store: This salad is best on the day it is made. However, leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for one day. Please be aware that it gets watery as it sits, so it is best to give it a good mix before serving.
