Prosciutto Arugula Salad With Warm Plums Recipes

ARUGULA PARMESAN PROSCIUTTO SALAD

Steps:

• Cut the slices of prosciutto into 2- to 3-inch pieces. Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the prosciutto in the hot pan and cook for a few minutes on each side, until crispy (the prosciutto will crisp up even more once it cools). Transfer the prosciutto to a paper towel lined plate.
• Place the arugula in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and the lemon juice and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Toss the arugula to coat it with the dressing and add the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
• Top with the crispy prosciutto, or plate on individual serving dishes and then top with the crispy prosciutto.

PROSCIUTTO-ARUGULA SALAD WITH WARM PLUMS

Steps:

• Slice the plums in half, and remove pits. Transfer plum halves to a mixing bowl. Add the salt, pepper, and thyme.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet set over medium heat. Add the plum halves, cut-sides down, and cook, shaking skillet often, until plums release their juices but still hold together, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the wine and balsamic vinegar; cook until the juice slightly thickens, about 2 minutes more.
• Arrange arugula in a mound on a serving platter. Drape the prosciutto over the arugula. Spoon the plums and sauce over the arugula and the prosciutto, and serve.
