Ready In: 35 mins
Serves: 4
Ingredients
Roasted Lemon Mint Pesto
- 1⁄2 medium lemon, washed, thinly sliced, and seeded
- 1⁄4 cup plus 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup fresh mint leaves
- 1⁄4 cup toasted hazelnuts or 1⁄4 cup almonds
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1⁄4 teaspoon sea salt
Burrata Artichoke Tartines
- 1⁄2 baguette, thickly sliced or 1 loaf bread, of choice thickly sliced
- olive oil, for drizzling
- 8 ounces burrata cheese
- 1⁄2 cup artichoke hearts packed in oil
- 1 small fresh mint leaves, for garnish
- crushed red pepper flakes, to taste
Directions
- Make the Pesto:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper and lay the lemon slices in a single layer on the sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Roast for 15 to 17 minutes, until the juices are tacky and the lemons are beginning to caramelize. Let cool for 10 minutes, then transfer to a small food processor, add the remaining 1⁄4 cup plus 2 tablespoons oil, the mint, hazelnuts, garlic, and salt and blend until you have a very lightly chunky pesto.
- Make the Tartines:
- Gently toast the sliced baguette or bread to the desired crispness. Drizzle with oil, dollop with burrata, add an artichoke heart or two, top with pesto, and finish with a couple of fresh mint leaves and red pepper fakes.
