      Yummy, growing us in South Utica and now living in Yorkville I know how delish Utica's greens are.
      I lost my recipe and was searching frantically for another. I made mine like yours except I didn't boil them. I have found that by skipping that step it saves a lot of time, and they taste just as good. Thanks origamifreak for the recipe your a lifesaver LOL!

      Living in/near the Utica area all my life I've enjoyed everyone else's greens. ....restaurants and friends'.......all the time wishing I could make my own that were as delicious. Now I can!! My son loves greens and chicken riggies....as do I...so I made these greens and the Utica Chicken Riggies Utica Chicken Riggies for him on Valentine's Day. We both thoroughly enjoyed our V-Day meal!! Everyone's greens are different.....some use bread crumbs and some don't.......some use spinach instead of escarole but they are all usually delicious. This recipe is comparable to some of the best I've had in the Utica area restaurants. Thanks for a great recipe!

      Very good! I didn't add as much broth or breadcrumbs as indicated as I had a smaller head of escarole. Be careful adding salt as the prosciutto and broth make this pretty salty to start. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

      This recipe is the real deal! Thank you for posting. It is as good as the best greens in Utica. Couldn't find the peppers in my area so used jarred. Next time I will need to quadruple the batch because they disappear! THANK YOU FOR POSTING the recipe, origamifreak!

      Loved the recipe even though I made a few adjustments. I didn't have escarole but went out to the garden and picked collard greens and mustard greens chopped them up with a spicy leafy lettuce and they were great. Also substituted bacon for the prosciutto since sometimes that's what restaurants in the area use. VERY GOOD!!

      The taste of these was good but mine came out REALLY soupy. I'd use a lot less broth next time. I'm from CNY and I now live where I have to drive 2 hours to Dallas just to find escarole! I'm glad I got it for this recipe though. I miss some good CNY food!

      Growing up in Rome NY greens were a staple dish.. From the Franklin Hotel to the Hollywood on Dominick Street to several other places in Utica. Great recipe...We all add our own flair to everyone elses... For me, I boil the greens in water and chicken broth as it adds flavor to the greens... I don't use breadcrumbs until I throw them under the broiler before we eat them... Thank you for the recipe....

      this is the closest I have tasted to Delmonico's Utica Greens!! I didn't use any chicken broth, though and only mixed in 1/2 the breadcrumbs. Fantastic recipe!!

      I sampled Utica Greens for the first time this summer at Lupino's Trackside Restaurant and Delmonico's Italian Steakhouse on a weekend trip to Utica, and I've been craving them ever since! This recipe is fast, easy, and perfectly replicates the greens I enjoyed in Utica. I ended up using only one pepper, and did not use any salt, but otherwise followed the recipe with excellent results. Thanks for posting!

      I live in Syracuse NY and for years have been buying Utica Greens from the Italian Chef. I tried this recipe when they ran out on New Years Eve and knew my guests were expecting them . WOW! These taste the exact same and cost MUCH less to make myself. I will never buy premade Utica Greens again. Thank you SO much for posting this recipe.

      Five years ago I moved from Utica, NY to Southern California. I just went back to visit family a week ago for the first time in five years. While in Utica, we went to Lupino's Trackside Restaurant where I ordered one of my old favorites, Lupino's Greens. I searched RecipeZaar looking for a similar recipe. I was very excited to find such a close match for the recipe! Thanks so much for posting this. I made the recipe and came it out wonderful.
