Grilled Caesar Vegetable Salad Recipes

GRILLED ROMAINE CAESAR SALAD

Steps:

• For the croutons: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Toss the bread cubes with the oil and House Seasoning in a medium bowl. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown and toasted, about 10 minutes. Let cool.
• For the dressing: Meanwhile, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, anchovy paste, Worcestershire sauce, Parmesan, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Whisk in water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until the dressing is thin enough to drizzle.
• For the salad: Heat a cast-iron grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the cut sides of the romaine halves with the oil and season with a pinch each of salt and pepper. Place the halves cut-side down on the pan and cook until slightly charred, about 2 minutes. Transfer each half cut-side up on a plate. Drizzle with the dressing and top with the croutons, Parmesan and lemon zest.
• Stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl.

GRILLED CAESAR SALAD

Steps:

• Make the Caesar dressing. Put the minced garlic into a medium bowl, and add the minced anchovies. Using a whisk, mix and mash these ingredients together until they form a paste. Add the egg yolks and the mustard, and begin to whisk them with the paste. Add a small stream of olive oil while continuing to whisk. Add more olive oil, whisking all the while, until the dressing begins to emulsify. Add the Worcestershire sauce, and continue to whisk until the dressing achieves a mayonnaiselike consistency. Add the red-wine vinegar, whisk to combine, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Make the vinaigrette. Combine the lime zest, lime juice, balsamic vinegar and oil in another small bowl, and whisk to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Make the salad. Drizzle the olive oil over the quartered heads of lettuce. Lightly grill these over a low fire for 15 to 20 seconds on each side, until they have a light goldenness, and remove to a platter. Using a pastry brush or a small spoon, paint the Caesar dressing over the lettuce, making sure to get dressing between the leaves. Return lettuces to edges of grill, sprinkle with Parmesan and cover for 30 seconds to allow the cheese to soften and toast. Remove lettuce to a platter, and drizzle with lime vinaigrette. Serve two pieces each, alongside a steak.

HEALTHIER GRILLED CAESAR SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the grill. Combine all the dressing ingredients except the oil in a food processor, and pulse to blend. With the motor running, slowly drizzle in the oil. Cut the romaine down the middle lengthwise, leaving the root end intact so the leaves hold together. Brush the romaine, English muffins, and chicken with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. When the grill is hot, add the chicken and grill for 4 to 5 minutes per side until firm and caramelized. Remove the chicken and allow to rest. Place the lettuce and English muffins on the grill. Cook the lettuce for 1 to 2 minutes, just enough to lightly char and wilt the leaves. Cook the English muffins until brown and crispy. Slice the chicken into thin strips. Cut the muffins into bite-size pieces. Arrange both, along with the olives and sun-dried tomatoes, over the individual lettuce halves. Drizzle with dressing and sprinkle with cheese.

CAESAR SALAD WITH GRILLED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Place the romaine in a large wooden bowl. In a mixing bowl, combine the garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, eggs and cheese. Mix well and pour over the greens. Add grilled vegetables, cooled. Toss and serve with homemade croutons.;
• Combine all of the vegetables except the eggplant in an airtight plastic bag. If you marinate the eggplant with the other vegetables, it will absorb all of the liquid, so marinate the eggplant separately in another bag. Mix the soy sauce and orange juice together and pour over the vegetables and seal the bags. Marinate at least 30 minutes.
• Place the vegetables on a vegetable rack or on foil into which holes have been punched and place them on the grill. Cook until tender.
• Melt the butter in a saute pan. Add the bread. Sprinkle the garlic salt and herbs on top of the bread. Toss the bread pieces constantly, until all of the butter has been absorbed.;

GRILLED CAESAR SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Preheat a stovetop griddle that fits over two burners over medium-high heat. Scatter the bread cubes on a baking sheet, toss with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, and toast in the oven, or scatter and toast on the griddle, until crisp throughout, about 6 to 8 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Combine the egg yolk, garlic, anchovies, vinegar, lemon juice, and mustard in a mini-food processor. Process until smooth, scraping down the sides of the work bowl as needed. With the processor running, pour 4 tablespoons olive oil through the feed tube to make a smooth dressing. Season with the salt and pepper.
• Drizzle the romaine hearts with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, brushing all over to coat evenly. Lay the romaine on the grill pan, cut side down. Grill just until marked and slightly wilted, about 2 minutes.
• Arrange the grilled romaine on a platter. Drizzle most of the dressing over them, sprinkle on the grated cheese and croutons, and then drizzle the remaining dressing on top. Use a vegetable peeler to shave slivers of Grana Padano or Parmigiano-Reggiano all over the top of the salad.
