Description

A refreshing dish that combines garlic-basil oil, heirloom tomatoes, prosciutto, and burrata.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ¾ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, (smashed)
  • ½ packed cup basil leaves
  • 2 medium heirloom tomatoes, (thinly sliced)
  • Flake salt, (as needed)
  • 8 slices san Danielle prosciutto
  • 8 ounces burrata cheese
  • Slices grilled bread, (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Add the oil to a small sauté pan with the garlic and bring to a simmer over medium-low until garlic is pale-golden brown, about 5 minutes.
  2. Let cool and strain with a fine mesh strainer.
  3. Add the basil and olive oil to a blender and pulse until combined and bright green.
  4. Use as is or strain once more for a thinner oil. The oil can be made and stored in an airtight container up to a week ahead of time.
  5. Arrange the tomato slices on a platter and season with flake salt.
  6. Arrange the prosciutto on the platter and place the burrata in the middle.
  7. Drizzle a tablespoon of the garlic-basil oil over the top.
  8. Serve with grilled bread on the side.

Notes

  • For a thinner oil, strain the garlic-basil mixture again.
  • This dish is perfect as an appetizer or a light meal.
