-
3 hearts of romaine halved lengthwise
-
Extra-virgin olive oil
-
4 ounces (125 g) goat cheese crumbled
-
1 cup (250 mL) garlic-flavored croutons
Pinot Grigio Vinaigrette
-
1 1/2 cups (375 mL) Pinot Grigio
-
2 shallots minced
-
2 teaspoons (10 mL) rice vinegar
-
Grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
-
3/4 cup (175 mL) olive oil
-
Kosher salt and freshly ground Black pepper
Recipe Method
Prepare the
vinaigrette:
1. In a small saucepan, bring wine to a simmer over medium heat; simmer until reduced by half. Add shallots, vinegar, lemon zest and lemon juice. Gradually whisk in olive oil, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
2. Prepare a hot fire in your grill.
3. Brush cut side of romaine with olive oil. Place cut side down on the grill. Grill for 3 to 4 minutes, or until outer lettuce leaves are charred and there are good grill marks on the cut side. (Do not close the grill lid or lettuce will wilt.)
4. Serve each half romaine sprinkled with crumbled goat cheese and croutons and drizzled with vinaigrette.
Tip:
Do not trim the core of the lettuce, or several of the outer leaves will fall off.
