Ingredients

Croutons:

Dressing:

Bites:

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  2. For the croutons: Combine the oil and garlic in a small bowl and whisk for 10 seconds. Add the bread cubes and toss to coat. Add the Parmesan, season to taste with salt and pepper and toss again. Transfer to a small baking sheet, drizzle with a little more oil and bake until golden and crisp, about 15 minutes. 
  3. For the dressing: Combine the Parmesan, yolk, lemon juice, anchovies, garlic and Worcestershire in a food processor. Pulse 3 to 4 times until well combined. While the processor is running, drizzle in the oil and process until a smooth emulsion forms, about 30 seconds. Season generously with salt and pepper. 
  4. For the bites: Tear the leaves from the romaine heart and arrange on a platter. Place a few croutons and tomato halves inside each leaf. Drizzle each leaf with about a tablespoon of dressing (you will have leftovers). Sprinkle the bites with Parmesan and salt and pepper to taste and enjoy.
