Pan Grilled bread with Arugula and Prosciutto

Here's a great way to use the grilled bread I talked about in my last post.

You'll need:

2 slices of good bread
2 slices of prosciutto
a handful of flavorful greens (spinach and arugula are good choices)
Hollandaise Sauce (I use Reese Brand. It's pretty good.)
A splash of Milk (to thin out the hollandaise. You might not need this)
1 oz Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
Oregano
Black Pepper
Crushed Red Pepper
Olive Oil
Salt
Minced Garlic


What ya do is...
2. Once the bread is crispy, turn the pan down to low and sprinkle the mozz cheese, a pinch of oregano, and the red + black peppers on. Lay a slice of prosciutto on top of each slice. Let this sit over the heat for a couple minutes to melt the cheese and warm the prosciutto.
3. Microwave or otherwise heat your hollandaise sauce. Add a splash of milk or cream if it's too thick to drizzle
4. Once the cheese melts and the prosciutto is warmed through, remove the bread to a plate
5. Toss your greens with some olive oil and a little spoon of the garlic. Throw these babies onto the hot skillet and cook for just a minute or so until they wilt down a bit.
6. Scoop the greens over the bread, drizzle with your sauce, and put it in your face. Knife and fork make this one easier.
