Ingredients
- 4 slices crusty bread
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 cup pesto
- 1 clove garlic
- 2 bunches green onions
- Olive oil
- Salt, to taste
- Crushed red chili flakes, to taste
- Red wine vinegar
- 3 ounces shaved prosciutto
Directions
- Toss the green onions with oil, salt, and chili flakes.
- Grill the green onions over medium heat until they’re nicely charred and fully tender. Cut into 1-inch pieces and drizzle with red wine vinegar. Taste and adjust seasoning accordingly — they should be bright and slightly spicy.
- In a mixing bowl, use a whisk to whip together the ricotta and pesto until smooth and slightly fluffy.
- Drizzle olive oil and salt on one side of each of the bread slices. Toast the bread oiled side up in the oven on broil until golden brown. Once out of the oven, rub each toast slice with the garlic clove.
- Spread the ricotta and pesto mixture on top of each toast and cover with the grilled green onions. Top everything with prosciutto and enjoy!
