Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet and place on paper towels to drain excess fat. Once cooled, chop into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Romaine

    Wash and dry the romaine lettuce. Chop it into bite-sized pieces and place in a large salad bowl.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Tomatoes

    Wash the cherry tomatoes and slice them in half. Add to the bowl with the lettuce.

  4. 4

    Toast the Sourdough

    Toast the slices of sourdough bread until golden brown. Once toasted, chop into crouton-sized pieces.

  5. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    In the salad bowl, add the chopped bacon and sourdough croutons to the lettuce and tomatoes. Toss gently to combine.

Jalapeño Aioli Preparation

  1. 6

    Make the Aioli

    In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, finely chopped jalapeño, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Drizzle the jalapeño aioli over the salad or serve it on the side as a dressing.
