Instructions
Caesar Dressing
- In a medium bowl whisk together ¼ cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon anchovy paste, 1 teaspoon dijon mustard, ½ teaspoon minced garlic ,½ teaspoon kosher salt, and ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper. l
- Slowly whisk in ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil until a thickened dressing is formed. Whisk in ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese.
Salad
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (350 to 400 degrees Fahrenheit). Carefully grease the grates using tongs to rub them with a paper towel dipped in olive oil.
- Use a pastry brush or silicone brush to brush olive oil on the cut sides of 2 hearts quartered romaine. Lightly season with salt.
- Place the lettuce with one cut side down on the grill, pressing it down so it creates direct contact with hot grates. Cook until lightly charred, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Flip to the other cut side and grill 1 to 2 additional minutes. Transfer grilled lettuce to serving plates.
- Drizzle the grilled lettuce with the Caesar dressing and top with ground black pepper, ⅓ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese, and 1 cup croutons. Serve immediately.
