Method
-
Tear the lettuce leaves into bite-size pieces and put them in a salad bowl. Set aside.
-
Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat. Chop the bacon and add it to the pan. Fry until browned, then remove it and set it aside on a paper towel to absorb the excess fat. Leave the accumulated drippings in pan.
-
Add half of the olive oil to the pan over medium heat. Cut the bread slices into small cubes and add them to the pan. Fry the cubes, with frequent turning, until browned, about 7 min. Remove the bread cubes with a slotted spoon or tongs and drain them on paper towels.
-
Add the remaining oil to the pan over low heat. Finely chop the garlic and add it to the pan. Cook 1 min, with stirring,
then pour in the vinegar and mustard. Warm through and season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad, then add the bacon and croutons. Serve.
