Broiled Romaine In The Oven, A Runner-Up To On The Grill.
I never thought I’d do this in a million years — Broil Romaine Lettuce in the oven before chopping it for a Salad. Usually wanting the freshest, most chilled Lettuce for a Salad, broiling Romaine would seem out of the question. After having my first Grilled Romaine Salad from a restaurant, I was hooked on the smokey flavor imparted into the Lettuce with a quick grilling. It’s now one of my favorite Salads.
To copycat it, I made grilled Romaine on the BBQ, but this evening it was too cold and rainy. We only have an outdoor grill. Since Romaine was on hand and I really wanted this Salad, I desperately broiled the Lettuce in the oven for (1) minute. It worked (a little) — It’s a simple runner-up if you can’t grill it on a BBQ. The above Romaine was tossed in a bag with Italian Dressing before broiling it. It wasn’t bad at all and I’ve already made it again. It’s dubbed the Romaine Runner-Up.
