Ingredients

  • 8 oz foie gras
  • 4 slices prosciutto
  • 2 cups arugula
  • 4 slices bread
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice the 8 oz foie gras into 4 equal pieces, about 1 inch thick. Pat dry with paper towels and season both sides with the 0.5 tsp salt and 0.25 tsp black pepper.

  2. 2

    Wrap each foie gras piece with 1 slice of prosciutto, pressing gently to adhere. The prosciutto should cover the foie gras completely.

  3. 3

    Heat a dry skillet over medium-high heat. Add the wrapped foie gras pieces and sear for 1-2 minutes per side, until the prosciutto is crispy and the foie gras is golden brown. Remove and set aside.

  4. 4

    Toast the 4 slices of bread until golden and crisp, about 2-3 minutes. Cut each slice in half if desired.

  5. 5

    Place the toasted bread on plates and top with the 2 cups arugula. Arrange the seared foie gras on top and serve immediately.

  6. 6

    Optional: drizzle with a balsamic glaze or honey for extra sweetness.
