Salad Base

Fried Tortilla Strips

Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Romaine Lettuce

    Wash the romaine lettuce under cold water. Shake off excess water and chop the lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Place in a large salad bowl.

Dressing Preparation

  1. 2

    Make the Caesar Dressing

    In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, grated Parmesan cheese, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth and well combined.

Fried Tortilla Strips Preparation

  1. 3

    Fry the Tortilla Strips

    Stack the corn tortillas and cut them into thin strips. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, fry the tortilla strips in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Assemble the Caesar Salad

    Add the Caesar dressing to the chopped romaine lettuce and toss until evenly coated. Top with fried tortilla strips for crunch. Serve immediately.
