Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Make the Parmesan Crisps

    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grate the Parmesan cheese and place small mounds on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Flatten them slightly and bake for about 5-7 minutes or until golden. Let cool.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Croutons

    Cut the bread into cubes. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the bread cubes and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and anchovy fillets until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    Chop the hearts of romaine and place them in a large bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the lettuce and toss to coat. Add the croutons and Parmesan crisps on top.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately while the croutons are still warm and crispy.
