5 Ingredient Butter Lettuce Salad With A Pesto Vinaigrette - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
2 heads butter lettuce (can also go by Bibb or Boston, I like to get the organic or fresh packed vs the pre-bagged lettuce i)
pecorino romano cheese, grated (as a garnish)
Dressing
4 tablespoons olive oil
4 tablespoons store bought pesto sauce
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
fresh ground pepper
Preparation
-
Dressing -- Mix the olive oil, pesto and fresh lemon juice with the pepper and whisk well to combine.
Serve -- I like to add the lettuce to a bowl of ice water just for a couple of minutes to get it \"icy cold.\" Then dry well and plate. You don't have to do the ice bath, but I just love this salad when it is well chilled. Drizzle the vinaigrette over the top and garnish with the grated cheese.
ENJOY!
