A traditional light Caesar salad consists of lettuce, croutons, Parmesan cheese, and dressing. These ingredients can be grilled for an even more interesting flavor. A grill pan is also ideal for grilling. Start by flavoring the salad with olive oil, which is then used to fry the croutons and lettuce. You'll be amazed at how the juicy romaine lettuce will unfold after grilling, creating golden grill marks on one side while retaining its crisp, fresh texture. Serve whole lettuce with croutons, cheese, and dressing over grilled meats or chicken.
