Best 4 Greek Inspired Grilled Wedge Salad Recipes

THE WEDGE SALAD

Steps:

• For the dressing: Whisk together the yogurt, kefir, dill, oil, garlic powder, salt, onion powder and cayenne in a medium bowl. Allow to sit for 1 hour in the refrigerator to let the flavors mingle.
• For the salad: Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Cut the radicchio into 8 wedges, then drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Place the wedges on the grill and cook until slightly browned and wilted, about 2 minutes per side. Place the wedges on a platter.
• Meanwhile, quarter the romaine and nestle it in between the wedges of radicchio. Dollop the dressing around the platter and crumble the Gorgonzola over the top.

GRILLED WEDGE SALAD

Steps:

• Cut 1 head iceberg lettuce into 4 wedges. Brush the cut sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill over medium-high heat until well marked, 1 to 2 minutes per cut side. Top with blue cheese dressing, chopped cherry tomatoes, chopped cooked bacon and crumbled blue cheese.

GRILLED GREEK SUMMER SALAD

Steps:

• For the sweet Greek dressing: Whisk together the vinegar, honey, mustard, oregano and garlic in a bowl. Slowly stream in the olive oil while whisking. Add salt and pepper to taste. Measure out 1/2 cup of the dressing for marinating the chicken. Set aside the remaining dressing for drizzling on the salad.
• For the chicken: Put the chicken in a nonreactive container, pour the reserved 1/2 cup sweet Greek dressing over it and toss to coat. Marinate the chicken, refrigerated, for 2 hours.
• Preheat a grill to medium heat.
• Oil the grill grates with vegetable oil. Grill the chicken until golden on each side and the internal temperature registers 165 degrees F, 7 to 8 minutes per side. Let rest before slicing.
• For the salad: Brush each romaine half with vegetable oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill on high on the cut sides until slightly charred, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Place a seared romaine half on a serving plate. Line up some tomatoes, feta, olives, cucumbers, onions and sliced chicken atop the romaine. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Drizzle with the sweet Greek dressing. Garnish with cracked black pepper and sea salt and serve.

GREEK-INSPIRED GRILLED TURKEY SAUSAGE BRATS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Place sausages on the rack, and grill until sausages are cooked through, 10 to 16 minutes, turning occasionally. Your cooking time will depend on your grill and how close the sausages are to the heat. Check periodically with a meat thermometer until you reach 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), which is well done.
• Combine red onion, cucumber, tomatoes, and Kalamata olives in a small bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, and stir in the oregano, salt, and pepper.
• Place the turkey sausages in the buns. Evenly distribute the Greek-style veggie mixture over the sausages, sprinkle with some feta cheese, and serve.
