1 large clove garlic, minced
2 Tbs. fresh lemon juice
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
3 Tbs. chicken stock
1 Tbs low-fat mayonnaise
3 Tbs. olive oil
2 Tbs. capers, drained
3 Tbs. chopped parsley

For the salad:
1 large head romaine
1?2 small red onion, sliced very thin
2 small tomatoes, quartered
1/2 cup julienne strips of jicama or fennel
1/2 cup thinly sliced radishes
2 oz. Parmesan or Asiago cheese
1/2 cup croutons

4 generous servings

Mash the anchovies, shallot, and garlic together and put them into a large salad bowl. Add the remaining dressing ingredi­ents and mix well. Tear up the romaine and add it along with the vegetables to the bowl. Using a vegetable peeler, shave the cheese into thin slices over the salad and scatter the croutons on top. Toss gently until thoroughly mixed and serve immediately.
