Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Heat the canola oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the Brussels sprouts, cut-sides down, and cook undisturbed until they are golden brown on the bottom, which should take around 4 to 5 minutes.

2. Flip the Brussels sprouts and transfer them to the oven. Roast them until they are browned on the edges and tender-crisp, which should take around 6 to 8 minutes. Let them cool slightly for about 5 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, whisk together the lemon zest, lemon juice, mayonnaise, garlic, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, and 3 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese in a large bowl until smooth. Add the Brussels sprouts, romaine lettuce, and croutons, and toss them until they are evenly coated.

4. Divide the mixture among 4 plates and sprinkle evenly with the remaining 1 tablespoon of Parmesan cheese.
