1
Prepare the Baby Gems
Rinse the baby gem lettuce under cold water and slice each head in half lengthwise. Pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
2
Make the Anchovy Dripping
In a small saucepan over low heat, add the anchovy fillets and minced garlic cloves. Stir until the anchovies dissolve into a paste.
3
Combine Sauce Ingredients
Add the olive oil, lemon juice, black pepper, and salt to the anchovy and garlic mixture. Stir well to combine and heat through, then remove from heat.

4
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
5
Grill the Baby Gems
Place the halved baby gem lettuce cut-side down on the grill. Grill for about 3-4 minutes until they are slightly charred and wilted.
6
Serve with Anchovy Dripping
Remove the grilled baby gems from the grill and drizzle them with the anchovy dripping sauce. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
