Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 nectarines (ripe but firm )
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
3 tbsp olive oil (virgin or extra virgin)
2 1/2 oz arugula (70g rocket)
1/2 bulb fennel (small)
2 tbsp pine nuts
1 oz goats cheese (30g)

Steps:

  • Carefully cut the nectarines in half and remove the stone. In a small bowl, whisk together 1tbsp of balsamic vinegar and 1tbsp of olive oil and dip the nectarines in the mixture and toss them around. Grill them for just a few minutes each side until they are lightly colored.
  • Meanwhile, add the remaining vinegar and oil to the leftovers from tossing the nectarines and whisk.
  • Put the arugula in a salad bowl. Thinly slice the fennel and cut larger slices in half or smaller. Add them to the arugula and mix. Drizzle over the balsamic dressing and toss well.
  • Toast the pine nuts either in a dry skillet/frying pan or under the broiler/grill for a couple minutes until lightly browned. Keep an eye on them as they burn quickly. Add them to the salad.
  • When cooked, cut the nectaries into slices and add to the salad. Crumble the goats cheese on top and serve.
