Method
1. For the vinaigrette: Place the unpeeled garlic in a dry sauté pan over low heat. Let cook, rotating periodically, until soft all the way through and slightly charred. Peel and smash to a paste. Combine with reduced orange juice, lime juice, and chipotle in a blender. Turn on the machine and slowly add the olive oil to emulsify. Season with salt, pepper, and sugar to taste.
2.Combine the romaine and iceberg lettuce. Place a mound of greens in the center of each dinner plate. Drizzle with a little of the vinaigrette. Place a line of each ingredient across the top of the lettuce, like a cobb salad. Garnish with the Maine lobster claw and drizzle with the vinaigrette.
