Split down the middle, oil, salt, pepper. High heat for 3-5 mins, want that char. Tossed with acid of your choosing.
Such a simple, delicious accompaniment for a summertime supper.

Been doing them for the last month or so. Love making a Sensation dressing and topping with grilled shrimp.

I’ve been lazy and usEd Ken’s Caeser dressing.

Shrimp, chicken, salmon. Haven’t found a grilled protein that doesn’t go great with it. Also, you can use more grilled romaine to stretch it if you needed...a big salad, if you will.

Wife made me start doing this for the past few months. It is a total game changer, and we no longer have normal salad.

I do the same except I usually do some shaved parm once they are plated.

What type of acids do you prefer? something like a vinaigrette?

Vinaigrette would work, but with adding the oil before you grill it, you really could just add lemon juice, or red wine vinegar, or balsamic vinegar.

Nice. Depending on what you add, Keto too.

Did this a few weeks ago. Topped it with a warm bacon vinaigrette, cherry tomatoes and blue cheese crumbles

I've done something similar with bok choy on the grill mixed an Asian vinaigrette consisting of oi;, rice wine vinegar, fish sauce, lime juice, & green onions. Nothing better than making a salad on the grill

It has been a while since we did this at our house. I think we will do them today, too.

I've never heard of this. Is it the whole leaf down to the but end, just the leafy part or just the crispy end?

I leave the end on so the stay together. Grill them cut side down, then chop them up and toss with whatever you are going to dress them with.

Toss with acid post grilling? I’ve heard of doing this but have never tried it - this thread may have pushed me over the edge.

Just spray with oil & S&P for the grilling part.
