Cruising the internet for recipe ideas, we came across this awesome looking ‘tart’ recipe. To us it looked more like a gourmet version of pigs in a blanket, so, we named it prosciutto in a shawl. Including the goat cheese, asparagus and eggs definitely make this a meal… and a meal that is unreservedly delicious!
And whether the shawl is wrapped or flung open, with Chēbē it is always gluten and grain free!

- 1 package (7.5 oz) Chebe Garlic Onion Breadstick Mix (or other savory Chebe flavor)
- 1 oz (¼ cup) Parmesan Cheese
- 2 eggs large
- 4 Tbsp milk or milk substitute
- 2 Tbsp oil
- 3 oz goat cheese in pieces
- 4 strips prosciutto ham (you could also use bacon or smoked ham)
- 12 sprigs asparagus thin and cut to about 6 inches
- 4 eggs
- Fresh thyme and chives
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- Milk or egg wash to spread on dough
-
Preheat oven to 400F.
-
In a mixing bowl and using a fork, blend the Chebe mix with the Parmesan, 2 eggs, milk and oil. Continue blending until the dough is smooth (get your hands in it!). This gives you about 14 oz of dough.
-
Break off about a third of the dough and using a clean surface, flatten the dough to about 1/8 inch (3mm) using a rolling pin. Cut this piece into a 6”x 6” square. Place it on a baking pan lined with parchment paper.
-
Blend the dough scraps back with the remaining dough and repeat the process 3 more times until you have four squares (diamonds) on the baking pan. (You will probably have a little bit of dough remaining. You can form this into rolls or breadsticks and bake them on the same pan.)
-
On each piece, spread the goat cheese bits evenly along the center of the diamond (tip to tip). Layer one piece of prosciutto in the same direction, then lay 3 sprigs of asparagus on top of the prosciutto.
-
Make a little indentation in the cheese/prosciutto for the egg yolk (so the egg doesn’t run off of the dough!). Crack an egg and drop it carefully into the indentation. Season with salt, pepper and herbs.
-
Carefully fold the ‘wings’ of the diamond over the center so that they overlap. Brush with milk.
-
It will be helpful to blend the dough of the top flap into the dough beneath it using a wet finger. This will help the dough hold together. Of course, like ladies who wear shawls, sometimes they keep them wrapped, and sometimes they wear them opened!
-
Bake for 18 – 20 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle with more of the herbs before enjoying!
