This classic Caesar Salad features crisp romaine lettuce, homemade croutons, a creamy Caesar dressing, and freshly grated Parmesan — perfect as a side or light main dish.
In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan, olive oil, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
Place chopped romaine lettuce in a large salad bowl.
Add croutons and drizzle with the dressing. Toss well to coat evenly.
Sprinkle with remaining freshly grated Parmesan before serving.
