Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Anchovy Dripping

    In a small saucepan over medium heat, add olive oil and minced garlic cloves. Sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Add the anchovy fillets and cook until they dissolve into the oil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice and chopped parsley. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Baby Gems

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Cut the baby gem lettuce in half lengthwise. Brush the cut sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Grill the Baby Gems

    Place the baby gems cut side down on the grill. Grill for about 3-4 minutes until they are slightly charred and warmed through. Remove from the grill.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Drizzle the anchovy dripping over the grilled baby gems and serve immediately.
