I often double this fantastic salad, and it’s always history by the end of the night. During inclement weather, simply prepare it under the broiler.—Trisha Kruse, Eagle, Idaho
Ingredients:
1/4 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
8 plum tomatoes, quartered
2 large sweet onions, thinly sliced
grilled romaine:
4 romaine hearts
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
dressing:
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
3 garlic cloves, peeled and halved
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the first six ingredients. Add tomatoes and onions; toss to coat. Transfer to a grill wok or basket. Grill, covered, over medium heat for 8-12 minutes or until tender, stirring frequently. Set aside.
2. For grilled romaine, cut romaine hearts in half lengthwise, leaving ends intact. Brush with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place romaine halves cut sides down on grill. Grill, covered, over medium heat for 3-4 minutes on each side or until slightly charred and wilted.
3. For dressing, place the oil, vinegar, garlic and brown sugar in a food processor; cover and process until smooth.
4. Coarsely chop romaine; divide among 10 salad plates. Top with tomato mixture; drizzle with dressing. Sprinkle with cheese. Yield: 10 servings.
