Recipe Method
1. Cut the lettuces in half leaving the base of the stem intact to hold the leaves together. 2. Brush the lettuces with the olive oil, well-seasoned with salt and pepper. 3. Place cut side down on a preheated barbecue rack or one of those cast iron griddle pans with raised ridges. 4. Cook for 3-5 minutes. They are ready when the outer leaves are well-charred, striped from the grill and the thick stems are just becoming tender. 5. Arrange the 12 lettuce halves in a dish and lay over thin slices of the cheese. 6. Add a few more twists of pepper and a drizzle of leftover olive oil. Throw in a hot oven or under a grill until the cheese starts to bubble. 7. Serve at once. Two lettuce halves, smothered in bubbling cheese, per person.
