Author: 
Recipe type: Appetizer
Cuisine: American-Italian
Serves: 4
 
Ingredients
  • 8 (½” slices) ciabatta bread
  • 2 oz. Pecorino Romano cheese, large shavings
  • 2 lb. green beans
  • 8 slices Prosciutto di Parma, thinly sliced
  • 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided in half
  • 1 lemon, cut into half, grilled
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
  1. Using Bull’s competition lump charcoal and black chimney starter, build a medium-hot fire on theBison grill. Once the charcoal is ready, spread it out evenly. For optimum charring and direct heat, make sure the adjustable charcoal basket is set as close to the grill grates.
  2. In a large bowl, add the green beans along with 3 tablespoons of oil, salt and pepper and mix well.
  3. Using the Bull basting brush, coat both sides of the ciabatta bread with 3 tablespoons of oil and salt.
  4. Grill the green beans, turning occasionally. Once charred, remove from the heat, around 8 minutes.
  5. Grill the ciabatta bread, allowing char marks to form, about 2 minutes per side.
  6. To plate: Rub the raw garlic across the surface area of the charred crostini. Next, add the thinly sliced prosciutto, charred green beans and shaved Pecorino. Finish with a drizzle with good evoo, a squeeze of grilled lemon juice, and a pinch of sea salt. Enjoy!
