How to make
-
STEP 1
Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat. Add pretzel pieces; sprinkle with garlic powder and salt. Stir to coat. Cook, stirring occasionally, 7-10 minutes or until pretzel cubes begin to crisp and turn golden brown. Remove from heat. Set aside.
-
STEP 2
Combine all dressing ingredients in small bowl; whisk until smooth and well blended. (Dressing can also be made in mason jar; shake to combine.)
-
STEP 3
Layer lettuce leaves on serving dish. Top with radishes and green onions. Drizzle with dressing; top with pretzel croutons and Parmesan cheese.
Tip #1
Increase chile paste to 2 teaspoons if you like a spicier dressing.
Tip #2
Calabrian chile peppers are grown and harvested in Calabria, Italy, and are also known as pepperoncini. They mature from a lighter green to a deep red color and are quite spicy. When crushed and comined with oil and vinegar to form a paste, calabrian peppers add a touch of savory umami flavor. Look for it alongside other spicy pastes and sauces.
