How to Grill the Perfect Romaine Hearts | Grilled Wedge Salad
Do you ever get bored of the same old salads? Well, in this recipe we’ll show you have to give your salad more dimension. We’re going to show you a way to grill your lettuce but grill it indoors on the BlueStar Platinum Series 36” Color Match Free Standing Gas Range. Grilling your lettuce will give it a little char and texture.
We used a head of romaine lettuce for this, but if you wanted to use a regular head of lettuce you can. Although shredded lettuce won’t work for this, so you’ll need something bigger. Cut your head of romaine right down the middle, and then quarter it. We just want to make sure when cutting to keep the core intact. Then drizzle olive oil over your wedges from up high. Add 2 teaspoons of chopped garlic to each wedge. Make sure to get in between the leaves when you spread it out.
Over at the grill, we will have it up to medium. We are only going to grill the flat side of the lettuce, so it will take about 3 minutes. This of course depends on how big your wedges are, and how hot your grill is. We don't want romaine soup. We want crisp, fresh romaine with a nice, hard char.
After it’s done grilling, you can serve it as is after adding some toppings. We chose to add some fresh onion and tomato on top. Then to dress this drizzle your choice of dressing over top.
Next time you make a salad, try grilling it. You can get the same effect as an outdoor grill on this indoor attachment from BlueStar.
Ingredients:
- 1 head romaine lettuce
- 1 beefsteak tomato
- 1 red onion
- 1 tablespoon of your choice of dressing
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoons chopped garlic
