Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Romaine Hearts with Parmigiano-Reggiano.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your outdoor grill to a high temperature, ensuring the grill grate is lightly oiled to prevent any sticking.
Step 2
Take your romaine lettuce hearts and brush the cut sides with about half a teaspoon of olive oil, enhancing their flavor and grill marks.
Step 3
Place the romaine cut-side down on the grill, allowing them to sizzle for roughly two minutes until the cut side achieves a beautiful caramelization while the interior remains refreshingly crisp.
Step 4
Once grilled to perfection, carefully transfer the romaine to a serving platter with the cut side facing up.
Step 5
Generously sprinkle freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese over the warm lettuce, allowing it to melt slightly.
Step 6
Finish by drizzling a harmonious blend of balsamic vinegar, sherry vinegar, and the remaining olive oil over the top, creating a delightful balance of flavors just before serving.
Step 7
Enjoy this vibrant dish that brings a smoky twist to your salad experience!.
