Utica Greens is a Spicy Escarole dish made locally in the area of Utica, NY. It contains, Escarole, Hot Cherry Peppers and some of their juice, Prosciutto, Hot pepper flakes, Chicken broth, bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese.
It takes quite a bit of Escarole to make a dish of greens, because just like spinach and collards, you start out with a big pot full and end up with 1/3 or less of the pot full. Yes, they cook down considerably.
Once you add all of the other goodies they are worth all the trouble it is to make them. Should you live near Utica, it is just as easy to call and place and order at one of the many places that makes them. All have their own little twist on their recipe. You can view my recipe here.
