Grilled Caesar Salad

Cultural Context

The Caesar salad, believed to have originated in Tijuana, Mexico, is often associated with Italian cuisine due to its use of Parmesan and anchovies. Grilling the romaine adds a smoky flavor that enhances the classic creamy dressing. This modern twist on a traditional salad has gained popularity in various culinary scenes, making it a favorite for summer barbecues and outdoor dining.

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: pecorino cheese

Nutritional yeast is lower in calories and adds a cheesy flavor.

croutons

🥗Healthier: toasted whole grain bread

💰Cheaper: store-bought croutons

Toasted bread is healthier and can be made at home.

anchovies

🥗Healthier: capers

💰Cheaper: canned tuna

Capers provide a similar briny flavor without fish.

egg yolks

🥗Healthier: silken tofu

💰Cheaper: egg whites

Silken tofu offers creaminess without cholesterol.

1

Make a basting oil by mixing olive oil, 3 tablespoons minced garlic, 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper, Italian seasoning, and fresh herbs.

2

Marinate a chicken breast in homemade Caesar dressing and sous-vide it before grilling.

3

Slice off the end of the romaine heart and cut it in half lengthwise.

4

Baste the cut sides of the romaine halves and the bread with the basting oil using a silicone brush.

5

Place the basted side of the romaine and bread down on the grill.

6

Baste the other side of the romaine and bread while grilling.

7

Grill until the bottom has char marks, then flip the romaine and bread over.

8

Check the bread for grill marks; it should be soft and chewy.

9

Plate the grilled romaine heart and add the grilled croutons, breaking them up slightly.

10

Add fresh white mushrooms, roasted corn, sun-dried tomatoes, and bacon on top.

11

Drizzle some dressing over the salad and add shreds of parmesan cheese.

12

Top with pieces of sous-vide chicken breast.
