- 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
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!
