I adopted this recipe from Recipezaar and have since made the recipe. It's very good and the only change I made was using 1 teaspoon dried thyme, as I didn't have fresh in the garden. The original poster said this recipe was adapted from Michael Chiarello.

There is something really good about crunchy lettuce and a bright shallot dressing filled with the flavour of dried oregano completed by creamy feta.

Provided by Danielle Alvarez

Yield Serves 6-8

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 heads iceberg lettuce, outer leaves removed
1 bunch chives, snipped
1⁄2 bunch dill, fronds picked
50-70 g (1¾ oz-2½ oz) creamy sheep's milk feta (Bulgarian sheep's milk feta works, or even a Danish cow's milk feta would be good too)
30 g (1 oz) thinly sliced shallot
50 ml (1¾ fl oz) agrodolce-style white-wine vinegar (if you can't find that, add 2 teaspoons honey to regular white-wine vinegar)
1 teaspoon salt
1½ teaspoons dried oregano
120 ml (4 fl oz) extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • First, make your vinaigrette. In a small bowl or jar with a lid, combine the shallot, vinegar and salt. Leave to macerate for about 15 minutes. Next, add the oregano and olive oil and mix or shake to combine.
  • Cut your iceberg into thin, long wedges and arrange on a platter. Shake the dressing up just before pouring it over the lettuce. Sprinkle a bit of salt on top, followed by the chives and dill, then shave slices of cheese over the whole thing, or simply crumble it in. Serve immediately.
