In a medium bowl, whisk together ¼ cup of extra virgin olive oil, the juice and zest of one lemon, one tablespoon of honey, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk vigorously for about 30 seconds until the mixture is well-blended and emulsified.

In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped romaine lettuce, one small sliced red onion, and freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Toss with salad tongs for about 15 seconds.

Drizzle the prepared lemon dressing evenly over the salad mixture and toss again gently for about 20 seconds.

Transfer the salad to a serving bowl or individual plates and serve immediately.
