Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Place the 2 eggs in a small saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Boil for 9 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath until cool, about 5 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    While the eggs cook, whisk together the 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tbsp lemon juice, and 1 minced garlic clove in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. Step 3

    Tear the 1 head of romaine into bite-sized pieces and place in a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss until every leaf is coated.

  4. Step 4

    Add the 1 cup croutons and 1/4 cup of the parmesan, and toss gently to combine.

  5. Step 5

    Peel and slice the hard-boiled eggs. Arrange the salad on plates, then top with the sliced eggs, the 4 oz smoked salmon, and the remaining 1/4 cup parmesan. Serve immediately.
