What a great way to say goodbye to the last of our warm weather fruits. Salty, crispy pancetta, fragrant basil, and mouth watering peaches grilled and drizzled with sweet balsamic vinegar.

This is a great appetizer that is worth the few extra minutes to prep, so I make it easier on myself by pairing it with a main course that doesn’t take long to prepare. Simply grilled lamb or pork chops would be delicious!

Ingredients:

  • Sliced peaches or nectarines, ripe but firm
  • Fresh basil leaves
  • Pancetta, thinly sliced
  • Slivers of Parmesan cheese
  • Balsamic vinegar

Directions:

  1. Wrap wedges of fruit with basil leaves, a sliver of cheese, and a slice of pancetta.
  2. Grill until pancetta is seared and crispy.
  3. Drizzle with balsamic and serve as an appetizer or atop a bed of mixed greens.
