Directions

1 Place a grid over warm coals and allow it to heat thoroughly.

2. Slice the Chinese lettuce lengthways and rinse with cold water. Use paper towels to remove excess water and drizzle with olive oil on the inside.

3 Season with salt and pepper, and place face down on the grid until the lettuce leaves become slightly crispy on the sides, then remove from the heat and sprinkle the juice of half a lemon over the lettuce.

4 While cooking the lettuce, place the prosciutto on the grid and cook until crispy.

5 Slice the remaining lemons into slices and grill some on the fire.

6 Arrange the salad by placing the lettuce leaves, Artichoke & Sundried Tomato Salad and Burrata on the plate.

7 Drizzle with Forage and Feast Mediterranean Vinaigrette and add the lemon slices and crisp prosciutto just before serving.
