Wilted Romaine And Red Onions Recipes

Steps:

• If using baby Romaine, the leaves can be pulled off the core and placed directly in the salad bowl. With a regular head of Romaine, trim any unattractive outer leaves from the lettuce, remove the core, rinse the leaves and dry them. Tear them into bite-size pieces and place them in the salad bowl. Add the mushrooms.
• Beat together the vinegar and anchovy paste. Beat in two tablespoons of the olive oil and set aside.
• Beat the remaining four tablespoons of oil in a large skillet. Add the onions and saute over medium high heat until they have just wilted and lost their raw sharpness. Add the croutons and toss in the skillet to coat them lightly with the oil. Remove the skillet from the heat.
• Add the vinegar, anchovy paste and oil mixture to the skillet, stir, then immediately pour the contents of the skillet over the lettuce. Season with pepper, toss and serve at once.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large heavy skillet over medium heat until it begins to brown and is fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the romaine in batches and cook, turning with tongs and adding more as it cooks down, until wilted, about 3 minutes. Stir in hot sauce and season with salt and a few grinds of pepper. Garnish with the prepared fried onions.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a small bowl toss the bread cubes with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and salt to taste and on a baking sheet toast them in the middle of the oven for 10 minutes, or until they are golden. Transfer the croutons to a salad bowl and let them cool. In a blender or small food processor blend together the garlic, the vinegar, the water, 3 tablespoons of the Parmesan, the orégano, the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste until the dressing is combined well. To the croutons add the romaine, the onion, and the dressing, toss the salad well, and sprinkle it with the additional Parmesan.

Steps:

• Prepare an outdoor grill to cook directly over medium-high heat.

• Brush the chops lightly with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Brush the Romaine, onion, bell pepper, corn and cucumber lightly with oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the chops on the grill and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, until golden brown. Flip and cook another 4 to 5 minutes, until they reach an internal temperature of 150 degrees. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
• Put the onion, bell pepper, corn and cucumber on the grill. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until lightly charred. Flip and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes, until lightly charred. Leave the corn on until it's lightly charred on all sides. As the vegetables are done, transfer them to a plate and set aside. Place the Romaine halves on the grill, cut-side down, and cook to 4 to 5 minutes, until lightly browned. Flip and cook another 2 to 4 minutes, until lightly browned and wilted. Transfer the Romaine to a plate and set aside.
• With a sharp knife, cut the chops into bite-size pieces and set aside. Cut the onion, bell pepper and cucumber into large dice and set aside. Cut the kernels from the ear of corn and set aside. Split the Romaine halves down the middle, then chop them into bite-size pieces. Place the Romaine in a large salad bowl. Add the pork chops, onion, bell pepper, corn and cucumber. Whisk the dressing well again and pour half of it over the salad. Toss well. Add half of the remaining dressing and the Parmesan and toss well. Add the rest of the dressing if desired and check for seasoning; add salt and pepper if needed. Toss well before serving.

Steps:

• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Whisk oil, vinegar, 1 tablespoon mint, mustard, and garlic in small bowl; season dressing to taste with salt and pepper. Brush lettuce and onion slices with dressing. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill onion slices until charred in spots and softened, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to platter; separate rings. Grill lettuce until charred in spots and slightly wilted, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer 2 wedges to each of 4 plates. Grill Halloumi until charred in spots and softened, about 2 minutes per side, depending on brand used.
