Grilled Prosciutto Peach Salad

IMG_9091

 

Before I unleash the deluge of Autumn recipes, I wanted to sneak in one last recipe utilizing Summer produce. We still have a few vendors selling peaches at our Farmer’s market, and although I’m thrilled to see pumpkins and apples popping up, I will miss these succulent stone fruits when they hibernate until next year.

This is our favorite go-to salad when I’m in a pinch. I love the combination of salt and sweet and it’s really simple to make when you’re already grilling meat for dinner. The proscuitto wrapped peaches also make a great appetizer all on their own!

 

 

Ingredients (serves 4)

2 ripe yellow peaches, pitted and cut into 12 slices
12 thin slices of prosciutto
6 cups baby arugula
2 tablespoons slivered almonds
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
salt and pepper

Directions

Preheat a grill to medium heat.

Wrap each peach slice with a thin slice of prosciutto.

Grill the peaches over medium heat for 3-4 minutes on each side, until the prosciutto is crisp and peaches are slightly tender.

Toss the arugula with the almonds, olive oil, vinegar, and a pinch of sea salt and cracked pepper.

Serve the grilled peaches over the dressed arugula,

Enjoy!
