1 to 2 hearts of romaine lettuce
1 bundle red leaf lettuce
2 shallots, thinly sliced
2 lemons, zested and juiced
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
Crushed red pepper flakes, or Aleppo pepper for a milder taste
1 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
Prep the lettuce. Chop the lettuce and put it in your salad spinner or a large bowl, rinse and drain very well. Pat the lettuce dry (if you have the time you can wrap the lettuce in paper towels and refrigerate briefly to help it crisp up).
Combine the ingredients. Add the lettuce, shallots, and lemon zest to a bowl.
Season. Season with kosher salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and olive oil. Toss to combine.
Finish and serve. Add the Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes (optional) and toss again. Enjoy
