Grilled Romaine Lettuce – a simple step-by-step guide on how to grill romaine lettuce (it’s SO easy and the flavor it amazing!). Perfect for any summer salad!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 or more head of romaine lettuce
- 1–2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (or avocado oil)
- kosher salt
- ground black pepper
Instructions
- Clean grill grates and heat grill to 450-500 degrees F.
- While grill heats up, rinse romaine and shake gently to remove as much water as possible; gently pat dry.
- Cut lengthwise so each head is in two separate pieces and leaves are held together by the stem.
- Brush both sides with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Place cut-side down on grill on direct heat and let cook for 2-3 minutes or until lettuce is nicely charred.
- Gently flip over and grill other side for 1-2 minutes.
- Remove and serve with olive oil, lemon, salt and pepper or however you desire! We love using it to make a delicious grilled vegetable salad!
Notes
- Serving: this makes a great side dish to pair with grilled steaks or some grilled chicken thighs.
