Provided by Molly Yeh

Categories     side-dish

Time 20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
Zest of 1 lemon (about 1 teaspoon) plus 2 tablespoons juice
1 clove garlic, grated
1 head romaine lettuce, torn into pieces
1 cup shaved Parmesan

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the breadcrumbs, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a bunch of grinds of pepper (about 20 grinds) and cook, stirring constantly, until the crumbs are golden brown, about 5 minutes. It's important to stir the whole time to make sure that they do not burn--which will happen if they sit too long in the skillet untouched. Once golden, immediately transfer them to a plate to cool and stop the cooking process. Set aside.
  • Whisk the yogurt, mustard, Worcestershire, lemon zest and juice, garlic, 3 tablespoons water, 1/2 teaspoon salt and about 20 grinds of black pepper in a small bowl until smooth, creamy and combined.
  • And add the romaine to a serving bowl. Sprinkle in 3/4 cup of the breadcrumbs, 3/4 cup of the Parmesan and the dressing and toss until the lettuce is nicely coated. Sprinkle the remaining breadcrumbs and Parmesan on top and serve immediately.

MY FAVORITE AVOCADO SALAD



My Favorite Avocado Salad image

Tangy lime dressing is the perfect topper for this avocado salad. Toasted walnuts make for crunchy goodness, but try it with any kind of nut you like. -Ilia Kaku, North Richland Hills, Texas

AVOCADO, BACON ROMAINE SALAD WITH VINAIGRETTE



Avocado, Bacon Romaine Salad with Vinaigrette image

This is my favorite salad that I serve when company is coming. My sister gave me the original. I have been making this for at lest the last 15 years. I have passed this recipe around so much. I thought I should share it. Every time I serve it. People want the recipe. The dressing brings it together. It is a very delicious...

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pkg of romaine lettuce or 1 head of romaine
1 good size tomato cut up
1 red onion halved nd sliced
1- 2 soft avocados
1/2 pkg bacon cooked crisp and crumbled
1 pkg crumbled feta cheese
1 lemon (this is to rub the avocado with)
1 pkg croutons if desired
DRESSING
3/4 c olive oil
1/4 c red wine vinegar
4 tsp granulated sugar
1 tsp salt
1-2 clove garlic chopped

Steps:

  • 1. Make the dressing mix all ingredients in a shake bottle, and let sit a few hours in fridge before using or even better overnight. I think the dressing is best the next day. It gives the garlic time to infuse the oil and vinegar. Also the dressing is delicious on other salads. If refrigerating overnight. Take bottle of dressing out of fridge two hours before using. Some of the oil may have solidified. Let oil soften. Shake well to dress salad. The reason for refrigerating is the raw garlic in it.
  • 2. Fry the bacon until crisp.
  • 3. Chop and rinse the romaine lettuce and dry it.
  • 4. Chop avocado and rub with lemon so it doesn't turn color.
  • 5. Chop the red onion and dice the tomato.
  • 6. Combine all vegetables and avocado in serving bowl. Sprinkle with bacon and feta cheese. Dress with the red wine dressing. Add croutons if wanted.
