Fresh Ricotta Bruschetta with Lemon, Black Pepper & Mint

  • 10 oz. fresh whole-milk ricotta cheese (1-1/3 cups)
  • 1 tsp. finely chopped lemon zest
  • Kosher salt
  • 1 clove garlic (optional)
  • 1 recipe Basic Bruschetta
  • Freshly cracked black pepper
  • Extra-virgin olive oil for drizzling
  • 1 or 2 sprigs mint, leaves picked and finely chopped

Combine the ricotta, lemon zest, and salt in a small bowl. Rub the grilled bruschetta with garlic, if using, and spread the cheese mixture on top. Season with a few twists of pepper, drizzle with the olive oil, and scatter the mint on top.
