Paint hearts of romaine lettuce with an herb vinaigrette, grill, and serve whole or chopped up.
Why Grill Romaine Lettuce?
Why in the world would anyone want to grilllettuce?
Sally Vargas
Lettuce just isn’t part of the grilling food group people!
You know, burgers, ribs,beer can chicken.
Why that’s just… just pretentious, that’s what.
Sally Vargas
Lettuce is a vegetable, or at least we eat it like one.
We do grill vegetables.
But I do encourage you to try it, especially if you have some romaine hearts around.
Sally Vargas
Or, turn them into a Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad.
How Long Should the Lettuce Be on the Grill?
It should take fewer than 8 minutes.
Sally Vargas
Take the romaine off the grill when all sides are lightly charred.
Turn your gas grill to high or get your charcoal coal grill very hot.
Paint the lettuce hearts all over with the vinaigrette.
Sally Vargas
Grill the romaine hearts until lightly browned on all sides, turning every minute or two until done.
