A salad of arugula, watercress, and mizuna is a spicy foil for fresh cherries, which tame the bracing flavors. Thin slices of prosciutto and handfuls of crumbled goat cheese add a silky, rich taste.
Servings: Serves 4
Ingredients:
•1 1/2 cups fresh cherries, pitted
•1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
•8 to 10 cups mixed spicy greens (such as arugula, watercress, and mizuna)
•1 spring onion, thinly sliced
•Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
•1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
•4 to 6 slices prosciutto, halved lengthwise
•5 ounces fresh goat cheese, crumbled
Directions:
In a small saucepan, combine cherries with vinegar. Bring to a boil over high heat, then remove. Let cherries cool completely in pan, about 15 minutes.
Put greens and onion in a large bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add mixture from pan and olive oil; toss well.
Divide evenly among salad plates; top with prosciutto and crumbled goat cheese. Serve immediately.
