Description
Peach sections wrapped in prosciutto are grilled and served with creamy burrata cheese and fresh basil for a stunning appetizer or sweet-and-savory dessert.
Ingredients
•
2 ripe, sweet (but not soft) freestone peaches
•
3 thin slices prosciutto, or more as needed, torn into ribbons
•
8 small bamboo skewers, soaked in water 20 minutes
•
6 ounces burrata cheese
•
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, for drizzling
•
Coarse sea salt to taste
•
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
•
1 tablespoon finely sliced fresh basil leaves
Directions
1
Preheat an outdoor grill at medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
2
Cut peaches in half and remove peach stones. Cut each half in half again.
3
Wrap prosciutto around each peach section; secure with small bamboo skewers.
4
Grill peaches, turning often, until prosciutto gets a little crisp around the edges and peaches begin to caramelize, about 6 minutes.
5
To serve, spoon burrata onto serving plates. Remove peaches from skewers; place several grilled peaches around cheese. Drizzle with olive oil. Top with a sprinkle of sea salt and pepper; garnish with basil.
