Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Breadcrumbs

    In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the breadcrumbs and toast until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Mustard Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Salad

    Rinse and dry the Little Gem lettuce and radishes. Cut the lettuce in half lengthwise and slice the radishes thinly.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, radishes, and chopped fresh herbs. Drizzle with the mustard vinaigrette and toss gently to coat.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Top the salad with the toasted garlic breadcrumbs and serve immediately.
