Ingredients

  • 1 2- ounce package prosciutto roughly chopped
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 cups grape tomatoes 1 pint
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 2 cups jarred marinara sauce see note
  • 1 piece/ball of burrata 4-6 ounces
  • Toasted bread or crackers for serving
  • Fresh basil for garnish
  • Red pepper flakes for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small skillet over medium. Once hot, add prosciutto and cook for 2 minutes, then flip and cook another 2 to 4 minutes until crispy. Set aside. 
  • In the same skillet once prosciutto is removed, add 1 tablespoon more oil, then add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook for 2 minutes until fragrant. Add the tomatoes and let them cook until they burst, about 10 minutes, stirring often. Add a touch more oil if needed.
  • Add marinara sauce into the tomato mixture. Reduce heat and simmer to cook sauce down for 10 minutes.
  • Either leave the mixture in your skillet if oven-safe, or pour marinara/tomato sauce to a 13×9 inch baking dish (or similar size). Top with the ball of burrata in the center.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is warmed through.
  • Top with crispy prosciutto. Serve hot immediately with your favorite bread or crackers. Garnish with fresh basil if desired!
