Step 1
Rinse the 1 head of green leaf lettuce under cold water and pat dry with a clean towel or use a salad spinner. Tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces and place in a large bowl.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the juice of 1 lemon, 3 tbsp olive oil, 0.5 tsp salt, and 0.25 tsp black pepper until well combined.
Step 3
Drizzle the dressing over the lettuce leaves and toss gently with tongs or your hands until every leaf is lightly coated.
Step 4
Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or lemon juice if needed. Serve immediately for the crispiest texture.
