Ingredients

10 very thin slices prosciutto
1 pound peaches (about 3), at room temperature, peeled and cut into 8 wedges
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon, juiced
2 tablespoons water
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh thyme leaves
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
4 cups loosely packed baby spinach

Directions

Cut the prosciutto slices in half crosswise and arrange in a fan on 4 dinner plates, 5 half slices per plate. Stretch plastic wrap tightly around each plate and refrigerate until needed. To save space, the plates can be stacked.

Place the peaches in a bowl and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Pour the lemon juice and water over peaches and cover.

Heat the butter over medium heat until the foam subsides and the butter has turned light brown. Add the bay leaf, thyme, vinegar, and salt and pepper, to taste. Cook for 1 minute then add peaches and baby spinach and toss to coat.

Divide evenly among the 4 plates of prosciutto and serve immediately.

Perfect Summer Party Salad
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Fabulous! The play of flavors was wonderful. Served this at a backyard luncheon for the girls. Perfect! Not overly... filling, but lots of great flavor. A terrific way to use fresh peaches in season. My new favorite summer salad.Read more

A great mix of flavors!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I really enjoy melon and prosciutto, so when I saw this recipe using peaches, I thought I would give it a try. It was... defnitely a wonderful mix of flavors, and short of the time it took to peel the peaches (next time, I wouldn't put forth the effort to peel) it was quick and easy. I used only a fraction of the butter and thus, tuned down the vinegar a bit, and I added a bit of fresh chopped mozzarella to the top just before serving. I will definitely make again!Read more
