Iceberg Lettuce Wedges with Ranch Dressing
Description
This recipe highlights crisp iceberg lettuce wedges paired with a homemade ranch dressing made from buttermilk, sour cream, and mayonnaise to create a creamy base. Lemon juice adds a fresh tang, while garlic powder, dried dill, and fresh chives introduce aromatic herb notes. Salt and pepper season the dressing for balanced flavor.
The lettuce is cut into hearty wedges retaining its firm texture and refreshing crunch. Serving the dressing on the side allows for dipping or drizzling according to preference, preserving the lettuce’s crispness until eaten.
Simple to prepare, this dish works well as a light appetizer or a fresh side salad. Chopped chives can be sprinkled on top for garnish and added flavor. The ingredients together create a cool, creamy, and herbaceous profile that pairs nicely with the mild, watery texture of iceberg lettuce.
