ingredients
- 3 cups julienne-sliced romaine lettuce
- 1 tablespoon julienne-sliced fresh basil
- 2 tablespoons italian provolone cheese, cut in 1/4-inch cubes
- 1 tablespoon garbanzo beans
- 2 tablespoons genoa salami or 2 tablespoons wine salami
- 3 tablespoons powdered parmesan cheese

balsamic vinaigrette
- 2 pasteurized egg yolks
- 3⁄4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 3 finely minced garlic cloves
- 3⁄4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups olive oil
directions
- Make dressing in a mixing bowl. Whisk egg yolks for 2-3 minutes, then add vinegar, garlic, salt and pepper. Whisk 2-3 minutes. Slowly add oil to emulsify. Refrigerate until needed.
- Combine greens, basil, provolone, garbanzos, salami in a bowl; add ½ cup dressing. Toss to combine. Add parmesan, turkey, and toss.
- Place salad on plate; top with tomato. Serve with pepper mill. The restaurant offers this as 1 large serving but with crusty bread and a cold drink it is a very nice dinner for 2. Also great side for 4-6 servings.

what exactly is a TABLESPOON of Salami or provolone Cheese? the measurement for the smoked turkey says a 1/4 cup, and I can see measuring the parmesan with a tablespoon, but slices of provolone and salami cannot be measured with tablespoons. and a tablespoon of garbanzo beans? that's not very much! and I have had this salad, these things just don't seem correct! help! thank you!

I needed to make a substantial salad for a potluck cause the main meal was vegetarian lasagna. I love the Palomino's here in Mpls, and I've had this salad. This was a huge hit. I served the salad ingredients build-your-own style. I included artichoke hearts, olives, pepperoncinis and toasted pine nuts. This recipe makes a boat-load of dressing, so if you want left-over it's great, otherwise cut it in half. If anyone is worried about the raw eggs, just dip the unopened eggs in boiling water for about 1 or 2 minutes and then run it under cold water right away. Use when cool.

This is the recipe I was searching for that actually brought me to Recipezaar for the first time...I used to work at Palomino's in Seattle and absolutely love this salad. It is probably my all time favorite salad meal and it's easy to make. The recipe here is perfect and easy to follow. Thanks deborahk for finding and posting this!!

My husband and I are just over 40, and mostly fit, but have health concerns that is moving our menu to more low-sodium and very low-carb. It's been a challenge, but this site has been an great resource.
