Prosciutto Honeydew With Balsamic Reduction Recipes

Steps:

• Put the vinegar in a small saucepan or skillet with 1/4 teaspoon pepper and simmer over medium heat until reduced to about 1 tablespoon, about 5 minutes (be careful; it can burn quickly towards the end). Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Wrap each piece of honeydew in a prosciutto half and top with a basil leaf, inserting a small pick to secure everything.
• Drizzle with some of the reduced vinegar and grind a little more black pepper on top.

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:

• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Season the quartered pieces endive and readicchio with salt and pepper. Wrap each section with a half slice of ham. Brush the wrapped sections with extra-virgin olive oil and grill 7 to 8 minutes, turning every couple of minutes, until ham is crispy and lettuce sections are tender.
• Place figs and vinegar in a pot and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer. Reduce the vinegar down to a few tablespoons, until the fig pieces are soft and vinegar is thick, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Arrange the lettuce on individual plates or a serving dish and spoon the fig and balsamic reduction over the lettuce, drizzling back and forth over the plate.
