ARUGULA SALAD WITH GRILLED APRICOTS AND PISTACHIOS



Arugula Salad With Grilled Apricots and Pistachios image

Pungent arugula contrasts beautifully with fruit of all kinds. Grilling the apricots deepens their flavor and makes them stand out against the arugula even more. You'll be able to make this beautiful salad only during the summer's short apricot season, and even then, you should buy the fruits at the farmers' market so you can sample them to make sure they are juicy and sweet.

Yield Makes 6 nine-inch pizzas

Number Of Ingredients 7

Cornmeal Pizza Dough
Extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces soft goat cheese, crumbled
4 ounces prosciutto, cut into thin strips
2 large plums or apricots, pitted and cut into thin wedges
2 bunches arugula, trimmed
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Heat a grill until medium-hot. Generously brush one side of pizza dough with oil; grill, oiled side down, until underside is golden brown and top begins to bubble, 3 to 5 minutes. Quickly brush top with oil; flip crust. Top with some of the cheese, prosciutto, and plums. Grill until toppings are hot and crust is cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes more.
  • Slide pizza with a large spatula onto a cutting board. Drizzle arugula with oil in a large bowl, and toss. Drizzle pizza with oil; top with some of the arugula (or serve it on the side). Season with salt and pepper. Repeat to make more pizzas.

Tips:

  • Select ripe, firm plums: Choose plums that are slightly soft to the touch and have no blemishes. This will ensure that they grill well and have a sweet, juicy flavor.
  • Use a variety of plums: Feel free to mix and match different varieties of plums, such as black plums, red plums, or yellow plums. This will add a variety of colors and flavors to your dish.
  • Grill the plums over medium-high heat: This will help to caramelize the sugars in the plums and give them a slightly smoky flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the grill: Make sure to leave enough space between the plums so that they can cook evenly.
  • Serve the grilled plums immediately: Grilled plums are best enjoyed when they are still warm. You can serve them with a variety of accompaniments, such as arugula salad, grilled cheese, or ice cream.

Conclusion:

Grilled plums are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish, main course, or dessert. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a new way to enjoy plums, give this recipe a try!
