Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup Greek yogurt, such as Icelandic Skyr
2 teaspoons anchovy paste (I like the tube)
1 large fresh clove garlic, minced (I grate on a rasp grater for speed)
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Kosher salt and fresh coarsely ground black pepper
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/3 cup grated Parmesan, plus more to finish
Two 4-ounce packages Little Gem lettuce, washed and dried (romaine hearts work well too)
2 tablespoons toasted breadcrumbs, made at home with leftover stale bread

Steps:

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the yogurt, anchovy paste, garlic, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Drizzle in 2 tablespoons olive oil while whisking. Mix in the Parmesan and taste for seasoning. Add the lettuce to the bowl with the dressing and toss well, ensuring that the leaves are coated in dressing. Transfer the salad to a serving plate. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Sprinkle with the toasted breadcrumbs and Parmesan to your liking. Freshly crack pepper on top. Eat and enjoy!
