Most people hear the words “grilled salad,” and the first thing they say is, “Warm lettuce?” My response to that is yes, grilled lettuce is awesome! Char influences the flavor of lettuce the same way it influences the flavor of proteins and vegetables. The flavor is one thing, but the contrast in temperatures, while different, is a revelation. Here, we took a classic steakhouse salad and changed the game by grilling the lettuce and tomatoes. Try it and see whether your perception of grilled salads changes. —Melissa Celli
