A round platter with six wedge salads topped with dressing, cheese, tomatoes and a strip of bacon. Served with rose wine.

Wedge Salad with a Gorgonzola Dressing

This crisp and refreshing steakhouse classic is delicious and so easy to assemble. It’s the perfect side to any grilled meat or as is on its own. Steak is obviously a perfect pairing but adding leftover grilled chicken and boiled eggs are also a great way to enjoy this salad.

  • 3 radishes thinly sliced on a mandoline
  • 2 tablespoons chives, thinly sliced
  • 2 ounces Gorgonzola cheese crumbled

Instructions
 

Dressing

  • Add all of the dressing ingredients to a food processor and pulse to combine (should be chunky). Refrigerate until ready to use.

Build the Salad

  • Remove the outer leaves from the lettuce. Cut the lettuce in half through the stem. Then cut each half into three equal wedges. Cut the end to remove the stem from each wedge.
  • Layer the cucumber slices on a platter or 6 individual plates, then add the wedges. Top with the Gorgonzola cheese dressing, tomatoes, radishes, chives, more Gorgonzola cheese crumbles and a bacon slice per wedge.
  • Serve with extra dressing and enjoy!
