Time 20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 head romaine lettuce, chopped
4 whole ripe tomatoes, cut into 6 wedges each, then each wedge cut in half
1 whole (large) cucumber, peeled, cut into fourths lengthwise, and diced into large chunks
1/2 whole red onion, sliced very thin
30 whole pitted kalamata olives, cut in half lengthwise, plus 6 olives, chopped fine
6 ounces crumbled feta cheese
Fresh parsley leaves, roughly chopped
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar, or more to taste
1 clove garlic, minced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 whole lemon, for squeezing

Steps:

  • Add the chopped lettuce, tomato wedges, cucumber chunks, onion slices, halved olives, half the feta and some parsley to a large bowl.
  • Combine the olive oil, vinegar, sugar, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, pepper and chopped olives in a bowl or mason jar. Whisk or shake together until combined. Taste and adjust seasonings (I almost always add a little more sugar).
  • Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients, then add some salt and pepper. Toss with tongs or clean hands. Just before serving, top with the remaining feta and squeeze a little lemon juice over the top.
