Iceberg Wedges With Ranch Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare Green Goddess dressing and set aside. Place 1 iceberg lettuce wedge and 2 cucumber wedges on each plate. Pour some dressing over top and crumble 1 slice bacon over each wedge. Serve.

Steps:

• Peel off any wilted or discolored leaves from the outside of the lettuce. Trim the core even with the bottom of the lettuce and cut the lettuce into quarters through the core. If the quarters look too big for a single serving, either cut them in half or trim them to whatever size you feel is a good serving.
• Combine the sour cream, yogurt, mayonnaise, garlic, vinegar, and chives in a bowl until well mixed. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• To serve, set the wedge of iceberg in the center of a salad plate, spoon the dressing over and dash it with a good pinch of chives.

Steps:

• Remove outer leaves of lettuce and wash thoroughly in cold water. Drain and pat dry with paper towels then split into wedges and arrange on plates. Scatter grape tomato halves over and around the lettuce.
• Make dressing by combining mayonnaise and sour cream in a large mixing bowl. Squeeze in fresh lemon juice, fold in blue cheese and chives and season with salt and pepper. Pour dressing over wedge and grape tomatoes. Drizzle with a little extra-virgin olive oil and top with chives.

Steps:

• Sprinkle salt over garlic and mash together to make a paste, the finer the better. Combine the paste with all ingredients except lettuce. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed. Chill for several hours before serving. When ready to serve, thin with more buttermilk if needed.
• Wash and dry the lettuce. Cut into wedges.
• To serve: place wedges on a platter or salad plates and drizzle dressing over wedges, making sure you have enough for all the lettuce leaves.

Steps:

• Whisk together sour cream, mayonnaise, buttermilk, and lemon juice in a bowl. Stir in 1/2 cup cheese and chives, then season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes (and up to 3 days) to allow the flavors to really meld.
• Place bacon in a medium heavy skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until fat is rendered and bacon is crisp, about 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels to drain. Reserve bacon fat for another use (it's delicious for pan-frying hash browns), or discard.
• Halve cherry tomatoes (if using beefsteak, halve and squeeze out some seeds beforehand, so it's not watery, then cut into bite-size pieces). Season with salt and pepper; let stand 5 minutes. Cut lettuce through its core into 4 wedges; place each one on a plate. Spoon dressing on top and sprinkle with bacon, tomatoes, remaining 1/4 cup blue cheese, and more chives.
