Grilled Hearts of Romaine with
Feta Cheese

Yields: 2 servings       Prep: 15 min

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup lemon juice
• 3 Tbsp olive oil
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/8 tsp black pepper
• 2 hearts of romaine lettuce, halved lengthwise
• 1/4 cup crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese
• Non-stick olive oil cooking spray

Directions

1. In a screw-top jar, combine lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper. Cover and set aside. Lightly coat cut sides of hearts of romaine with cooking spray.


2. For a gas or charcoal grill, place romaine lettuce, cut sides down, on the rack of a covered grill directly over medium heat. Grill, covered, for 1 to 3 minutes or until grill marks develop on the romaine and the romaine is slightly wilted.


3. Place each romaine half on a serving plate. Shake lemon mixture well to combine and drizzle evenly over grilled romaine. Sprinkle with feta cheese.
