Ingredients

  • Vegetable cooking spray
  • 4 very thin slices prosciutto
  • 12 (1/4-inch thick) slices rustic country bread
  • 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
  • 1 (12-ounce) package frozen artichoke hearts, thawed
  • 1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup grated Pecorino Romano
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh basil leaves
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 3 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Put an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with vegetable cooking spray

Lay the prosciutto in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes until crispy. Set aside to cool for 10 minutes.

On another baking sheet, arrange the bread slices in a single layer. Using a pastry brush, brush the bread with 1/4 cup of the oil. Bake until golden, about 12 to 15 minutes.

In a food processor, combine the artichoke hearts, beans, cheese, basil, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Pulse until the mixture is chunky. With the machine running, slowly add the remaining 1/4 cup of olive oil. Spoon the artichoke mixture onto the crostini. Crumble the prosciutto and sprinkle on top. Drizzle with oil and serve.

    There's nothing wrong with this recipe, but my impression was that it's quite bland. It wasn't salty, just didn't have much flavor. I added a couple of shakes of cayenne which helped. Doubt I'll make it again.

    I thought it was delicious! Not salty at all. I did substitute the cheese for parmesan reggiano. And used crumbled bacon. Rinse your beans first. So good! I served this to company and everyone loved it. Thanks Giada!!

    It was a great recipe but WAY too salty, it definitely didn't need the prosciutto. We added fresh tomatoes to the top.
