Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Grill the Romaine

    Preheat the grill. Cut the romaine hearts in half lengthwise and brush with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill until charred, about 2-3 minutes per side.

  2. 2

    Blister the Tomatoes

    In a skillet over medium heat, add the cherry tomatoes and cook until blistered and softened, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Salad

    On a plate, place the grilled romaine halves, top with blistered tomatoes, fried calamari, drizzle with balsamic reduction, and sprinkle Grana Padana cheese.
