In this paper, we prove a conjecture of the second author by evaluating the determinant $$\det\left[x + \left(\frac{i-j}p\right) + \left(\frac ip\right)y + \left(\frac jp\right)z + \left(\frac{ij}p\right)w\right]_{0\le i,j\le(p-3)/2}$$ for any odd prime $p$, where $(\frac{\cdot}p)$ denotes the Legendre symbol. In particular, the determinant is equal to $x$ when $p\equiv 3\pmod4$.
