Wedge Salad
Cool and crisp and flavorful, it’s no wonder this Wedge Salad is such a popular salad! Traditionally served at steakhouses, this is so easy to serve at home.
Ingredients
- 4 lices Bacon
- 1 iceberg lettuce large head
- 1 cup blue cheese dressing
- 1 oz blue cheese crumbled
- cherry tomato for topping, sliced
- radish
- green onion
- fleur de sel to taste, freshly ground
- black pepper to taste, freshly ground
Instructions
- Chop the bacon. Place in a medium skillet and cook until crisp. Remove to a paper towel lined plate with a slotted spoon.
- Remove any wilted or brown leaves from the head of lettuce. Place the head on a cutting board and cut it in half, through the core. Place each half flat side down and cut into half, again through the core, creating 4 wedges. Take each wedge and cut the core out on a diagonal. Rinse gently under running water, then shake off or wipe down any excess water.
- Place each wedge on a plate, cut side up.
- Top each with 1/4 cup of the blue cheese dressing, then sprinkle on the cooked bacon. Divide the blue cheese, cherry tomatoes, radishes and green onions. Sprinkle each with fleur de sel and pepper.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
- If you don't have fleur de sel, you can use coarse sea salt or kosher salt. The fleur de sel just adds a little something extra.
