Herbed Escarole Casserole image

I was inspired by a recipe that I saw somewhere on the internet. I've changed it quite a bit to suit personal tastes. A nice side with grilled meats.

Time 1h10m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 head escarole, app. 10-12 ozs
2 ounces prosciutto, finely chopped
1/3 cup finely chopped fresh herb
1 garlic clove, minced
1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon panko breadcrumbs
1/3 cup shredded asiago cheese
3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 deg. Grease a 2-cup casserole.
  • Cut off root end of escarole. Thoroughly rinse the leaves. Bring water to boil in a large pot. Add the escarole and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove and drain. Roughly chop.
  • Heat oil in a skillet. Add the escarole, prosciutto, herbs, and garlic. Saute, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat. Stir in 1/3 cup panko and cheese.
  • Place in casserole. Sprinkle with 1 tbl. panko.
  • Place in oven and cook for about 25 minutes. Serve.
  • Note1: I used a mix of basil, oregano, rosemary, sage and thyme. Use whatever you like. You can substitute 1 tbl. of mixed dry herbs, if you must - try to use something fresh, even parsley.
  • Note2: Delis that sell prosciutto often sell the ends too small to slice at less than half price of the sliced prosciutto. It keeps a long time. Of course, you can sub sliced prosciutto.
