Grilled Caesar Salad Recipe


Grilled Caesar Salad Recipe
This wilted salad recipe was adapted from one I had at a swanky restaurant downtown. A quick, fun and impressive dish, great as an appy and very tasty.

Ingredients
  • 2 romaine lettuce hearts, sliced in half lengthwise, ends only slightly trimmed
  • 2 T your favourite olive oil (I like to use a garlic enfused oil)
  • 4 T your favourite Caesar dressing, or homemade, (I use Renee's)
  • 2 T capers
  • freshly craked black pepper, freshly grated parmesan cheese (please, not the stuff out of a shaker!), and real bacon bits to top.

Directions
  1. Light your grill and turn to med-high heat (my grill is a propane one, I have no idea what you'd do with a hibachi).
  2. Take your lettuce heart halves and brush generously with oil.
  3. Mix the capers in with the salad dressing.
  4. With tongs, place the lettuce halves cut side down, on a well oiled, hot grill. Do not move (the lettuce- you can move all you like) Grill for about 30 seconds, or until the edges are just a little charred. Flip.
  5. Grill other side for 30 seconds.
  6. Transfer to individual plates, artfully dollop salad dressing and sprinkle toppings and serve immediately.
  7. **Note: you might wish to remove the tough end of the heart prior to serving, but be sure to leave it on for the grilling- it's what keeps it all together. I like the presentation better when it's whole, but suit yourself.

Sounds interesting. The salad being grill must be delicious!


The grilling imparts a lovely nutty flavour which is complimented by the parmesan. We love it.


I'm finding more and more recipes for grilling besides meat! I want to try this.
