Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Juice of 1 medium lemon (about 2 tablespoons)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 small shallot, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 large heads butter, Boston or Bibb lettuce, torn into bite-sized pieces
4 radishes, thinly sliced
1 Persian cucumber, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon fresh chives, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Whisk the lemon juice, Dijon and shallot together in a bowl with 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Let stand 5 minutes to soften the bite of the shallot. Add the olive oil while whisking to emulsify.
  • Combine the lettuce, radishes, cucumbers and chives in a salad bowl. Toss with just enough vinaigrette to coat. Serve immediately.
