Prosciutto And Honeydew Bites With Balsamic And Black Pepper Recipes

Steps:

• Place the first 8 ingredients in a blender; cover and process until smooth. Place arugula, onion and herbs in a large bowl. Drizzle with 1/3 cup vinaigrette and toss lightly to coat. In large serving bowl layer with a quarter of the arugula mixture, honeydew, mozzarella cheese and prosciutto. Repeat layers 3 times. Serve with remaining vinaigrette.

Steps:

• Heat grill or grill pan to high. Coat the surface of the grill with oil or spray to avoid sticking. Place fruits cut side down on grill and cook 3 to 4 minutes until warmed through and evenly marked.
• Heat the remaining ingredients (for the glaze) in small pot over medium-high heat or place on grill next to fruit. When the sauce reduces, it will become syrup-like in no time - less than a minute. If you burn food often or get distracted easily, cook it over lower heat. Otherwise, let it rip. When the balsamic sauce coats the back of a spoon and reduces by half, remove the pan from the heat and discard the ginger chunk.
• Arrange fruits on a platter and drizzle liberally with the glaze.

Steps:

• In a small bowl stir together the vinegar, the minced mint, and the sugar, let the mixture stand for 30 minutes, and force it through a fine sieve set over a bowl, pressing hard on the solids. Arrange 3 wedges of the melon on each of 4 chilled plates and drizzle each serving with some of the vinegar mixture. Drape each serving of melon with a slice of the prosciutto and garnish the plates with the mint sprigs.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. Place prosciutto slices 4 inches apart on baking sheet; cook until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel. Whisk yogurt, mayonnaise, honey, zest, juice and pepper in a bowl until smooth. Add honeydew and cantaloupe; toss to combine; divide among 4 bowls. Crumble prosciutto; sprinkle it and basil over salad. Serve immediately.
