This romaine lettuce salad is the easy green salad you’ll make on repeat! This side dish comes together in minutes with creamy Green Goddess dressing, crisp radishes, and crunchy breadcrumbs.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 romaine hearts (about 8 cups chopped)
  • 2 radishes, thinly sliced
  • 1 shallot, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup Green Goddess Dressing (or Cilantro Sauce for vegan)
  • 1/4 cup Italian panko*
  • Parmesan shavings, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Chop the romaine hearts. Thinly slice the radishes and shallot.
  2. Make the Green Goddess Dressing.
  3. Place the romaine on salad plates or a large platter. Top with the sliced radishes, shallot, and Parmesan cheese shavings. Drizzle with dressing and sprinkle with Italian panko.

Notes

  • Panko: Panko is a Japanese-style breadcrumb that is airier and lighter than traditional breadcrumbs. “Italian” panko has herbs and salt already added. Look for it (or plain panko) at your local grocery store. Gluten-free versions are also widely available.
  • Plain panko substitute: Mix ½ cup plain panko with ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt and ½ tablespoon Italian seasoning (or 1 teaspoon dried oregano and ¼ teaspoon each dried basil and thyme).
  • Make it vegan: Skip the Parmesan and use Cilantro Lime Sauce in place of Green Goddess Dressing.
  • Make it gluten-free: Swap in gluten-free panko or omit.
