Grilled Romaine Hearts

Method

Preparation and Grilling

  1. 1

    Prepare the marinade

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Marinate the romaine

    Cut the romaine hearts in half lengthwise. Brush the cut sides with the marinade. Let them sit for about 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.

  3. 3

    Preheat the grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Grill the romaine

    Place the romaine hearts on the grill cut-side down. Grill for about 3-4 minutes until charred, then flip and grill for another 2-3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the romaine from the grill and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Drizzle with balsamic vinaigrette dressing before serving.
