Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a food processor, combine the thawed frozen peas, optional pea shoots, grated Parmesan cheese, extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and a clove of garlic. Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
- Preheat your broiler to high. While it heats, slice the ciabatta bread into ½-inch thick slices and drizzle each slice lightly with extra virgin olive oil.
- Broil the ciabatta slices for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy, keeping a close eye.
- Remove the toasted ciabatta from the oven and gently rub one side of each slice with the cut garlic clove.
- Spread a generous layer of the creamy pea topping on each warm slice of toasted ciabatta and garnish with additional grated Parmesan, sprinkle of lemon zest, and pea shoots if desired. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and finish with black pepper.
