Ingredients

  • 1 Sheet of Puff Pastry (thawed)
  • 1 tbsp Unsalted Butter
  • ½ a Medium Onion (sliced)
  • 3 tbsp Pesto
  • ¼ cup Ricotta
  • 3 Slices of Prosciutto
  • ¼ cup Grated Parmesan
  • ¼ cup Grated Gruyere
  • 3 Large Eggs
  • 1 ½ cups Arugula
  • As Needed Salt
  • As Needed Black Pepper
  • As Needed Olive Oil

Instructions

  • Heat a small pan over medium heat. Add in the butter and allow it to melt then mix in the onions. Cook until the onions turn translucent then reduce the heat to low and continue to cook the onions for 20-30 minutes, stirring frequently. They should develop a deep brown color and caramelize. Remove the onions from the heat and set it aside for later.
  • Preheat the oven to 425˚F.
  • Lightly dust a clean surface with flour. Roll out the puff pastry sheet until it becomes a 14x12 inch rectangle. Transfer the puff pastry to a sheet tray lined with parchment paper. Use a knife to score a ½ inch border around the edges. Make sure to not cut all the way through the dough. Prick the center of the puff pastry dough with a fork.
  • Bake the puff pastry in the oven for 10 minutes. Remove the puff pastry from the oven then use a fork to flatten down andy areas in the center that may have puffed up.
  • Evenly spread the pesto onto the bottom of the puff pastry. Dollop small spoonfuls of ricotta on top. Rip the prosciutto slices into smaller pieces and distribute them onto the tart. Add the caramelized onions and then sprinkle the gruyere and parmesan cheese on top. Crack the eggs and place them onto different areas of the tart. Bake the tart for 12-15 minutes or until the eggs reach your desired level of doneness.
  • Remove the tart from the oven and sprinkle the arugula on top. Drizzle some olive oil over the arugula and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cut the tart into 6 pieces and enjoy!
