Grilled Peaches With Goat Cheese Thyme and Prosciutto

Course Appetizer, Salad, Side Dish
Cuisine Mediterranean
Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 2 peaches, halved
  • 4 tbsp soft goat cheese
  • 4 tsp fresh thyme leaves plus more sprigs for garnish
  • 4 slices prosciutto
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp honey for drizzling
  • 4 cups salad greens, as desired I used arugula and endive. Also, an avocado since we had one.
  • 4 tbsp toasted pine nuts Trader Joes has them already toasted
  • 1/2 lemon for spritzing at the end

Instructions

  • Cut peaches in half along seam side. Take the pits out and take a melon baller or small spoon and remove a small amount of the meat.
  • Take about one tablespoon of the goat cheese and roll it in the thyme leaves and place in the center of the peach.
  • Wrap each half in prosciutto and rub all over with olive oil.
  • On a medium-high grill, grill each side, starting with the bottom for about 2 minutes each until the prosciutto gets firm and you see grill marks.
  • Place grilled peaches on top of salad greens and drizzle with olive oil, honey, pine nuts and a spritz of lemon. Garnish with a thyme sprig.
