Grilled Romaine With Corn, Leek, And Anchovy Dressing
- 2 romaine spears, halved and reddish part of bottom cut off
- 1 corn on cob, shucked and removed from cob
- 1/2 leek, thinly sliced
- freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano
- 2 tablespoons butter, divided (half for the romaine and half for the corn)
- Handful parsley leaves, coarsely chopped, for garnish
- For Dressing:
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled and rough chop
- 4-6 anchovy fillets, packed in oil
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- lemon zest of 1 lemon
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard (I like Grey Poupon)
- Splash Worcestershire sauce
- A little good olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon plus 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- To Make Dressing:
- In a small food processor, add garlic and anchovies and pulse. Add lemon juice/zest, vinegar, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and a little olive oil. Taste and add salt and pepper if needed.
- Halve the romaines hearts lengthwise.
- Evenly sprinkle the cut sides with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- Put balsamic and 1 tablespoon butter in a large (9-inch or so) pan, preferably cast iron. . Crank the heat to high. Stir until the butter and balsamic melt together and thicken a bit (about a minute).
- Press romaine halves cut-side down in the pan. Look after a minute or so. You want a nice dark color but you don't want them to burn.
- Spoon cooked corn and leek over the grilled romaine.
- Garnish with chopped parsley and drizzle with a little dressing
