Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced shallots and peas. Cook until softened but not browned, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

02

Step
2 mins

Transfer the mixture to a food processor and pulse until coarsely pureed. Stir in the fresh mint.

03

Step
1 mins

Cut the ciabatta slices in half horizontally. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil. Cut the garlic clove in half and rub the cut side onto each slice of bread.

04

Step
3 mins

Preheat the oven's broiler and position a rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Place the ciabatta slices on a baking sheet and toast until lightly browned, approximately 3 minutes. Watch carefully to prevent burning.

05

Step
1 mins

Remove the toasted ciabatta from the oven and spread generously with the pea mixture. Serve immediately and enjoy this burst of fresh flavors.

For a richer flavor, try using brown butter to sauté the shallots and peas.
If using frozen peas, thaw them slightly before cooking to prevent them from being too watery.
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese adds a wonderful salty and savory element to this bruschetta. Sprinkle it on top just before serving.
Feel free to experiment with other herbs like basil or parsley in addition to or instead of mint.
For a vegan option, substitute the butter with olive oil or a plant-based butter alternative.
