Bruschetta With Rosemary Roasted Tomatoes Ricotta And Prosciutto Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Lay the prosciutto on a parchment-lined sheet tray. Bake until darkened and crispy, 10 to 12 minutes. Allow to cool fully, and then break up the prosciutto into pieces. Set aside.
• Heat 2 ounces (1/8 cup) olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add half of the bread and let cook until the underside begins to brown, about 3 minutes, then flip the bread and finish the other side, about 3 minutes more. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Remove from the pan and rub both sides with a garlic clove to perfume the toast. Wipe out the pan and repeat again with the remaining oil and bread.
• Place the chopped tomatoes in a medium bowl. Grate the remaining clove garlic on a fine grater into the tomatoes. Add the basil, olives and half the Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange the bread on a serving platter. Top the toasted garlic bread with the tomato mixture, then top with the crispy prosciutto pieces. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan.

Steps:

• Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Place the bread on a baking sheet and brush both sides with olive oil. Grill the bread until golden all over, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Rub one side of each with the garlic clove.

Steps:

• Coat the tomatoes in olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast 20 minutes to concentrate the flavor and burst the tomatoes.
• Cut 2 large "planks" of bread each 1-inch thick by slicing the bread lengthwise horizontally. Reserve the rest of the loaf for another use.
• When you remove the tomatoes from the oven, switch on broiler. Char bread on both sides then rub hot bread with cut garlic.
• In a bowl, lightly mash the roasted tomatoes and combine with scallions and basil. Top the large planks with tomato mixture then cut each giant crostini into 4 pieces, 8 pieces total.
