This refreshing salad combines crisp romaine lettuce with a tangy cilantro-lime dressing, perfect for a light and flavorful meal.
Prepare a large bowl of ice water.
This helps to keep the lettuce crisp and fresh.
Rinse the romaine lettuce under cold water, tear into bite-sized pieces, and place in the ice water for 10 minutes.
Soaking the lettuce in ice water enhances its crunchiness.
Drain the lettuce and dry thoroughly using a salad spinner.
Ensure the lettuce is completely dry to prevent the dressing from becoming watery.
Slice the cucumber and celery ribs into thin pieces.
Uniform slices ensure even distribution in the salad.
Combine the lettuce, cucumber, and celery in a salad bowl.
Mix gently to avoid bruising the lettuce.
In a blender, blend the cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Blending the dressing ensures a smooth and well-emulsified texture.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat evenly.
Add the dressing gradually to avoid overdressing the salad.
Serve the salad immediately and enjoy.
Serve in chilled bowls for an extra refreshing experience.
