Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 medium lemon, juiced, divided
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 teaspoons clover honey
salt
1 pinch dry mustard
¼ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon water
½ cup walnuts, roughly chopped
salt
1 firm-ripe peach
1 firm-ripe avocado. halved
4 ounces crumbled blue cheese, or more to taste
4 cups baby spinach

Steps:

  • Reserve 1/2 teaspoon of lemon juice. Whisk the rest with brown sugar and vinegar until sugar dissolves. Add olive oil, honey, 1 pinch salt, and mustard. Whisk until dressing is thoroughly emulsified; set aside.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Mix white sugar and water in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Heat, without stirring, until sugar has melted and is just beginning to change color, 2 to 3 minutes. Add walnuts and stir to coat; turn mixture out onto the parchment paper. Season lightly with salt and allow to cool.
  • Fill a medium-sized pot with enough water to submerge peach. Bring to a boil; add peach. Boil for 1 minute and turn off heat. Let sit for another minute; remove peach from water with a spider or slotted spoon. Place onto a folded towel to cool.
  • Cut each avocado half into 8 slices using a small knife. Carefully remove skin. Brush avocado slices with the reserved lemon juice.
  • Peel the loosened skin from the peach, taking care not to squash the flesh, and discard. Cut into 16 even slices. Carefully pry out 1 slice; remove the remaining slices from the pit. Trim away any hard bits of the stone that adhere to the center of the slices.
  • Crack and separate any of the cooled candied walnuts that have stuck together. Toss them with the crumbled blue cheese.
  • Divide spinach over 4 salad plates. Arrange peach and avocado on top in alternating and partially overlapping slices, forming a ring. Spoon the blue cheese-walnut mixture into the middle of each ring. Drizzle the dressing over the salads.

Tips:

  • To select the ripest avocados, gently press the fruit near the stem. It should yield slightly to gentle pressure.
  • To easily peel and pit an avocado, cut it in half lengthwise around the seed, then twist the halves apart. Remove the seed with a spoon, then scoop out the avocado flesh with a spoon.
  • If you don't have balsamic glaze, you can make your own by simmering balsamic vinegar in a saucepan over low heat until it thickens and becomes syrupy.
  • To prevent the avocado from browning, toss it with a little lemon juice or lime juice.
  • For a vegetarian version of this salad, omit the chicken and add an extra cup of chickpeas.

Conclusion:

This avocado, peach, and spinach salad is a delicious and healthy summer meal. It's packed with fresh, seasonal ingredients and is a great way to get your daily dose of fruits and vegetables. The balsamic glaze adds a touch of sweetness and acidity that complements the other flavors in the salad perfectly.
