Dinner Tonight: Lettuce Hearts With Serrano, Fried Croutons And Tomatoes Recipe

1. 1

   Place the lettuce hearts on a large platter.

2. 2

   Pour two tablespoons of the olive oil into a large skillet set over medium heat. When shimmering, add the onion and bread cubes. Cook, stirring often, until bread crumbs are golden brown, four to five minutes. When done, remove with a slotted spoon, and place on top of the lettuce hearts.

3. 3

   Turn heat to medium-high, and lay in as many of the serrano slices as will fit in one layer. Cook, turning once, until the slices are crisp, just a few seconds on each side. Repeat process until all the serrano slices are cooked. Arrange crisp slices on top of lettuce hearts.

4. 4

   Reduce heat to medium, and add the tomatoes to the skillet. Toss well to coat the tomatoes with oil in the skillet, and season with salt and pepper. Cook until soft, about two minutes. Pour in the sherry vinegar and remaining tablespoon of oil. Let the mixture bubble for a second, turn off the heat, and pour contents of skillet over the lettuce hearts. Serve immediately. Season with more salt and pepper to taste.
