Bruschetta with Greens
Recipe courtesy Michael Chiarello, 2007
Show:  Easy Entertaining with Michael Chiarello
Episode:  Croquet Party
Bruschetta with Greens
8 thick slices Italian country bread (best if day-old)
1 pound mustard greens
2 clove garlic
Unfiltered extra-virgin olive oil
Sea salt or gray salt

Preheat a grill or stove-top grill pan.

Place Italian country loaf on a work surface and slice 8 thick slices. Place bread on a grill pan and grill until the slices are well browned on both sides.

In a large pot of boiling water, blanch the greens and then drain on paper towels. Set aside.

Remove the bread slices from the grill. Cut 1 garlic bulb in half and rub 1/2 over both sides of each bread slice.

Once the blanched greens are dry, place on top of the bread slices. Generously drizzle each slice with olive oil and a dash of gray salt.
