Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small shallot, sliced
4 cups sliced mixed mushrooms (oyster, shiitake, cremini and white)
2 teaspoons chopped fresh marjoram
2 cloves garlic, minced
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 cup ricotta cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Zest and juice of 1/2 lemon
Four 1/2-inch-thick slices rustic Italian bread, toasted
1 cup baby arugula leaves

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the shallot and cook until translucent, about 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring, until they give off their liquid and are golden brown, about 6 minutes. Add the marjoram, garlic and some salt and pepper. Stir and cook for 1 minute more.
  • Meanwhile, add the ricotta, Parmesan, lemon zest and juice and salt and pepper to taste to a food processor and process until very smooth.
  • Spread the whipped ricotta on the toasted bread. Toss the arugula with salt and pepper. Arrange the mushrooms on the ricotta mixture, then top with the arugula.
