Grilled Watermelon Salad

This is summer on a plate! Grilled watermelon, crispy prosciutto and tangy balsamic dressing take this salad to the next level.

Fresh watermelon is sweet and refreshing, but something dramatic happens when it is cooked.

INGREDIENTS

– Balsamic vinegar – Sugar – Dijon mustard – Kosher salt – Black pepper – Extra virgin olive oil – Prosciutto – Seedless watermelon – B arugula – Basil – Scallions – Parmesan shaved

It takes on a tomato-y flavor that goes well in salads or makes for a bright summer soup when it is pureed.

For this salad, I sliced the watermelon in thick slices, drizzled it with olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper and placed it on a hot grill.

I seared the watermelon on both sides, then cut it into cubes and tossed it with all the salad fixings.

Serve this salad with crusty bread, chilled white wine and a little girl-talk.
