Steps:
- Trim the leafy ends of the romaine and cut in half lengthwise.
- Using 2 tablespoons olive oil, drizzle both sides of each romaine half and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Grill lettuce over direct heat for 1-2 minutes per side, until lightly grill marked. Remove from grill and put onto serving plates or bowls.
- Mix balsamic vinegar with water in a microwaveable bowl and add dried cranberries. Microwave on high for 30 seconds and let stand for at least 10 minutes.
- Toast pecans carefully in a dry pan over low heat until golden brown and fragrant. Set aside.
- Add salt and pepper to plain breadcrumbs and spread on wax paper or a baking sheet.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a nonstick pan until very hot.
- Dip each slice of goat cheese in beaten egg, coat with breadcrumbs and add to the hot oil. Fry until golden brown on both sides and remove from pan, placing 2 slices on each romaine half.
- Add the balsamic vinegar and cranberry mixture to the oil remaining in the pan and stir to combine and heat through. Pour mixture evenly over the 4 romaine halves. Top with toasted pecans and serve.
