Ingredients

2 ripe peaches, halved and pitted
1 tbsp olive oil, plus more for drizzling
4 cups fresh arugula
6 slices prosciutto, thinly sliced
4 oz fresh mozzarella, torn
3 tbsp balsamic glaze
Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

Brush peach halves lightly with olive oil. Grill cut-side down over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes until softened and grill marks appear.
Arrange arugula on two plates. Top with grilled peach halves, torn prosciutto, and fresh mozzarella.
Drizzle generously with balsamic glaze and a little extra olive oil.
Finish with freshly ground black pepper. Serve immediately.

Tips

For extra crunch, add a sprinkle of toasted pecans or walnuts.
If peaches aren't in season, use ripe figs or thinly sliced apples for a similar sweet-savory balance.
