Ingredients

  • 2 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 Tbs. fresh lemon juice
  • 1 small clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp. Dijon mustard
  • 1/8 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 Tbs. freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • Olive oil spray
  • 2 hearts of Romaine lettuce

Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, lemon juice, garlic, mustard, Worcestershire, and pepper. Stir in the Parmesan cheese.

Preheat the grill over medium-high heat. Oil the grill's surface. Remove any wilted outer leaves from the romaine hearts, then cut the hearts in half length-wise, leaving the end intact so each half holds together. Spray them lightly all over with the oil spray.

Grill until grill marks form and the lettuce wilts slightly, about 6 minutes, turning once or twice. Serve drizzled with the vinaigrette.
