Grilled Romaine Lettuce

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 head romaine lettuce, washed and sliced in half
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Prepare the grill (medium-high heat). Drizzle 1 tablespoon of oil over the romaine, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the lettuce halves until they are crisp-tender and browned in spots, turning occasionally, about 6 minutes. Coarsely chop the lettuces, then toss them in a large bowl with the remaining oil and vinegar and serve.
