Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 loaf French baguette cut into 1/4-inch slices
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 2 olive oil
  • 4 ounces soft fresh goat cheese, room temperature
  • ΒΌ teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
  • Salt to taste
  • 4 slices of crisp pancetta, crumbled
  • 2-3 radishes, thinly sliced

Method
 

  1. Place the pancetta in a skillet over medium heat. Cook until the pancetta is browned and crisp. Transfer to a paper towel with a slotted spoon to drain.

  3. Spread about a teaspoon of goat cheese atop the toasted baguette slices; add salt and pepper. Top with pancetta, a few slices of radish, microgreens, and fresh chives.
  4. Place crostini on platter and serve.
