Time 27m

Number Of Ingredients 15

12 slices Italian Bread, (1/4-inch thick)
6 tablespoons Butter, (melted)
4 tablespoons Grated Pecorino Romano Cheese
1 pint Cherry Tomatoes, (halved)
1 tablespoon Fresh Basil, (chopped)
1 tablespoon Balsamic Vinegar
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
1 teaspoon Fresh Ground Black Pepper
1 pound Fresh Mozzarella
12 slices Italian Prosciutto
1 tablespoon Butter
1 tablespoon Fresh Basil, (chopped (garnish))
Balsamic Vinegar, (drizzle on plate (garnish))
Extra Virgin Olive Oil, (drizzle on plate (garnish))

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F; then combine the butter and cheese in a small bowl.
  • Brush the butter mixture onto both sides of the bread; then place on baking sheet and cook 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway through until both sides are toasted. Remove from the oven and cool (leave the oven on).
  • Cut the tomatoes in half, place them in a bowl; then add fresh chopped basil, balsamic vinegar, EVOO, Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper. Allow to rest until you're ready to plate.
  • Cut the cheese into twelve 1/2-inch strips; then wrap each piece of cheese with the prosciutto and repeat for all.
  • Melt the butter in a large stainless steel skillet; then add the wrapped cheese to the pan. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side to sear the prosciutto; then place the pan in the oven. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the cheese starts to melt and is hot. (Remove the pan from the oven with an OVEN MITT, the handle WILL BE HOT!)
  • Put the tomatoes in the center of the plate, arrange the Mozzarella on top of the tomatoes; then drizzle balsamic vinegar and EVOO around the plate and top with the toasted bread. Garnish with some more chopped fresh basil and serve warm.

GREENS FRITTATA WITH MOZZARELLA AND PROSCIUTTO



Greens Frittata With Mozzarella and Prosciutto image

This savory frittata will take about 15 minutes, including the cooking time, putting weeknight dinner on the fast track. Add ribbons of raw greens to beaten eggs, then proceed to make the frittata, flipping it like a big pancake. The greens are cooked in the process, and the flavor is phenomenal.

Categories     breakfast, brunch, easy, quick, main course

Time 15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 to 6 ounces arugula, spinach or chard, stemmed and sliced into 1/2-inch ribbons
2 small garlic cloves, minced
Salt and pepper
Olive oil
8 large organic eggs
Pinch of red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons grated parmigiano
1/4 pound fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced
3 or 4 slices prosciutto, torn into strips.

Steps:

  • Put the greens in a large mixing bowl. Add the garlic, season with salt and pepper and drizzle lightly with olive oil. Toss the greens with your hands to coat the leaves.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and season with salt and pepper. Add the red pepper flakes and parmigiano. Pour the egg mixture over the greens and stir them together.
  • Heat a well-seasoned cast iron skillet or 9-inch omelet pan on medium-high. Pour in a film of olive oil and let it heat. Add the frittata mixture and let it cook briskly, lifting the edges with a spatula and tilting the pan to help the bottom set. Reduce the heat to prevent the bottom from over-browning and quickly arrange the sliced mozzarella and prosciutto over the surface. Cook for about 3 minutes.
  • Place a large plate over the pan, then carefully invert the frittata onto the plate. Return the pan to the heat, add a touch more olive oil, and slip the frittata back into the pan, uncooked side down, for another 2 minutes. (Alternatively, leave the frittata in the pan and finish under a broiler). Slide the frittata onto a platter. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature, cut into wedges.
