This is a fun take on bruschetta with peas, shallots, and mint that I invented one year when my neighbor brought me a bunch of fresh peas. I have also made it with frozen peas.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 4 shallots, minced
- ¾ cup fresh or frozen peas
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
- 6 slices ciabatta bread
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, or as needed
- 1 clove garlic, peeled
Directions
Step 1
Melt butter in a skillet and cook shallots and peas until soft, but not browned, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until coarsely pureed. Mix in mint.
Step 2
Cut ciabatta slices in half and drizzle with olive oil. Cut garlic in half and rub onto each slice.
Step 3
Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Place ciabatta slices on a baking sheet and toast in the oven until lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
Step 4
Remove from oven and spread with pea mixture. Serve immediately.
