I hadn't heard of a grilled salad until I visited The Frisky Oyster in Greenport, NY a few years ago. Frisky makes a grilled caesar salad that is out of this world, and probably contributes to the reason that they are in the top 5 fine dining restaurants on Long Island.
This is really easy to throw together, and you'll impress any guests you make it for! I love the warm lettuce, with the char flavor, added to your typical caesar salad favorites.
Prep time: 5 minutes

2 hearts of romaine lettuce, cutting in half, (longways) thru the stem (see as pictured)

Salt & pepper, to taste

Shaved parmesan
Croutons
