Searing romaine lettuce hearts in a hot skillet caramelizes the surface of the lettuce, while the core stays crisp. Toss it with a punchy, garlicky Caesar dressing and a big coating of Parmesan, and you get all the crunch of the classic salad plus a smoky, nutty depth — without turning on an outdoor grill.
