Romaine Salad With Caesar Dressing Recipes

ROMAINE SALAD WITH BREADCRUMBS AND SIMPLE DRESSING

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the breadcrumbs, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a bunch of grinds of pepper (about 20 grinds) and cook, stirring constantly, until the crumbs are golden brown, about 5 minutes. It's important to stir the whole time to make sure that they do not burn--which will happen if they sit too long in the skillet untouched. Once golden, immediately transfer them to a plate to cool and stop the cooking process. Set aside.
• Whisk the yogurt, mustard, Worcestershire, lemon zest and juice, garlic, 3 tablespoons water, 1/2 teaspoon salt and about 20 grinds of black pepper in a small bowl until smooth, creamy and combined.
• And add the romaine to a serving bowl. Sprinkle in 3/4 cup of the breadcrumbs, 3/4 cup of the Parmesan and the dressing and toss until the lettuce is nicely coated. Sprinkle the remaining breadcrumbs and Parmesan on top and serve immediately.

• For the dressing: Meanwhile, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, anchovy paste, Worcestershire sauce, Parmesan, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Whisk in water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until the dressing is thin enough to drizzle.
• For the salad: Heat a cast-iron grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the cut sides of the romaine halves with the oil and season with a pinch each of salt and pepper. Place the halves cut-side down on the pan and cook until slightly charred, about 2 minutes. Transfer each half cut-side up on a plate. Drizzle with the dressing and top with the croutons, Parmesan and lemon zest.
