Ingredients

– 2 heads of romaine lettuce
– ½ cup Caesar dressing (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

Creating a flavorful Grilled Romaine Caesar Salad is simple and straightforward. Follow these easy steps for a restaurant-quality dish:

1. Preheat the Grill: Start by preheating your grill to medium-high heat.
2. Prepare Romaine: Rinse the romaine heads under cold water and pat dry with a clean towel. Cut each head in half lengthwise.
3. Brush with Olive Oil: Drizzle the cut sides of the romaine with olive oil. Optionally, rub minced garlic onto the cut sides for an extra flavor punch. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
4. Grill Romaine: Place the romaine halves cut-side down on the grill. Grill for 2-3 minutes until grill marks appear and the lettuce is slightly wilted.
5. Flip and Grill: Carefully turn the romaine halves over and grill for an additional 2-3 minutes until tender but still crisp.
6. Remove and Cool: Remove the grilled romaine from the grill and let it cool slightly.
7. Dress the Lettuce: Drizzle Caesar dressing over the grilled romaine, ensuring each half is generously coated.
8. Add Toppings: Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese and add croutons on top of the dressed romaine.
9. Serve: Transfer the grilled romaine to serving plates, garnishing with extra Parmesan and lemon wedges if desired.
