Ingredients

  • 2 hearts of romaine
  • 4 capers crushed, finely chopped *optional leave out if you don’t like capers
  • 1/4 cup truffle mayonnaise
  • 2 TBSP milk
  • 1/4 cup parmesan fresh grated
  • 2 pinches Fleur de Sel

Instructions

  • remove any discolored leaves from the romaine hearts
  • cut each one in half lengthwise, keeping the heart intact
  • remove any flyaway lettuce leaves
  • prepare the dressing by mixing the mayonnaise with the milk and capers, if using

to grill the romaine:

  • grill cut side down over medium heat for 3-4 minutes
  • then grill cut side up 2-3 minutes
  • remove to a platter and drizzled with the dressing, scatter on the shredded cheese and sprinkle with Fleur de Sel, serve immediately
  • heat grill to medium high heat

Notes

you’re not looking to cook the romaine until it collapses, just give it a little color and some grill marks, so if your heat is too high be sure to watch for that and remove as necessary
