📝 Preparation Steps

Cut romaine hearts in half, leaving the root intact but trimmed. Make sure your lettuce is completely dry. Brush with 1 tsp olive oil on the cut sides.

Grill the lettuce
6
Sear lettuce on all sides to get some color, about ⏱️ 3 minutes total on a very hot grill.
7
Cool
8
Transfer lettuce to the fridge to cool while preparing dressing and sides.
9
Toast the panko
10
Toast panko in a dry pan with salted butter and remaining 1 tsp olive oil. Once the panko is toasty brown, remove it from the heat. This is my fun substitute for basic croutons! The panko clings to the wedges of lettuce so every bit is a texture party.
