This classic salad is a masterclass in simplicity, focusing on the quality of its fresh, seasonal ingredients. The heart-healthy base of crisp, torn lettuce leaves is elevated by a vibrant homemade dressing that balances the savoury depth of anchovies with the sharp brightness of white wine vinegar. It is a light yet flavourful side dish that provides a sophisticated touch to any meal without the need for complex techniques.
Perfect as an accompaniment to grilled fish or roasted chicken, this versatile salad is packed with nutrients and heart-healthy fats from the extra-virgin olive oil. Using finely chopped chives adds a delicate onion-like finish that cuts through the rich, savoury dressing. Serve it immediately after tossing to ensure the leaves remain perfectly refreshed and crunchy for your guests.
