Earthy Portobello Salad with Prosciutto
Recipe courtesy Rachael Ray, 2007
1/4 pound prosciutto, thinly sliced but not shaved
4 portobello mushroom caps
6 ribs celery from heart with leafy tops, thinly sliced on an angle
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup freshly chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 cups baby arugula
2 lemons, juiced
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, eyeball it
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

TIDBIT - larger markets carry very tiny bottles of truffle oil. It makes a very tasty drizzle over the top of this salad.

Heat broiler. Arrange the prosciutto on foil covered baking sheet and broil to make crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Reserve.

Arrange the thinly sliced vegetables on a platter with parsley and arugula. Dress the salad with lemon juice, extra-virgin olive oil and salt and pepper. Drizzle with truffle oil, optional. Break up the crispy prosciutto and scatter over the salad. Serve.
