Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Parmesan Sable

    Mix grated Parmesan cheese with a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread the mixture thinly on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes until golden and crisp. Allow to cool, then break into shards.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Lemon Chips

    Thinly slice the lemon and remove any seeds. Place the slices on a baking sheet. Drizzle with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Bake at 200°F (93°C) for about 1 hour until dried and crisp.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the Little Gem lettuce and chopped sundried tomatoes. Drizzle with sundried tomato oil and Caesar dressing, then toss gently to combine.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Plate the salad and top with Parmesan sable shards and lemon chips. Add additional salt and pepper to taste before serving.
