Notes about this recipe

Iceberg lettuce never tasted so good. The dressing is an absolute banger.

Great easy salad. Wonderfully easy side for a full protein.

Wow, fantastic and so simple. Will make again!

This recipe is everything. The layering of acid and salt means you get the perfect bite in every hunk and forkful of iceberg *except* much more crushable because it replaces the (often delightful) heaviness of the bleu cheese dressing with a lighter, herbier drizzle. Fully support.

Simple, easy and great. Maybe a little too much lemon.

Tarae1204's comment hits all the key flavour points exactly! I used regular yogurt in place of Greek and so the dressing didn't need much thinning. The "pre-dressing" of the lettuce with lemon, salt & olive oil is a great idea that provides lots of sharpness to offset/compliment the lovely, creamy dressing. We also liked the crispy panko bits throughout each bite and I would make this again for sure!

Delicious, lemony, garlicky, creamy and crispy. Will make this again.
