Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 strips bacon
1 head iceberg lettuce
olive oil, or as needed
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
½ red onion, sliced
½ cup blue cheese dressing

Steps:

  • Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels and let cool. Chop bacon into bits.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Cut the lettuce into 4 wedges. Brush the wedges with olive oil.
  • Cook lettuce on the preheated grill, cut-side down, about 2 minutes. Turn lettuce and cook until warmed through and slightly charred, 2 minutes more. Discard any wilted leaves.
  • Place each lettuce wedge on a plate. Top with tomatoes, onion, and bacon. Drizzle on blue cheese dressing and serve.
