Grilled nectarine, chicken and parma ham summer salad

This Grilled nectarine, chicken and parma ham summer salad is the perfect feast on a hot sunny day. Filled with beautiful fresh flavours you’ll want seconds.

Update – I am the runner up of the Summer Treats competition with this recipe!

To celebrate the freshness and joy of summer food I have a gorgeous #summertreats dinner to share. I give you the very easy and delicious grilled nectarine, chicken and Parma ham summer salad.

This salad works so well with hot or cold chicken and is a brilliant dish to take on a picnic. This is a great mix of fruit, herbs, creamy mozzarella, chickens and that slightly salty Parma ham. I like to think of this meal as a starter, main and dessert all in one.

 The nectarines with the herbs were delicious and worked so well. I love the smell of thyme and rosemary with the nectarines. You could cook this on the barbecue of in a grill pan.

 The slightly caramelised nectarines in the salad.

 I topped the salad with a handful of almond flakes which added another nice texture to the finished salad.

Instructions

 

• Slice the nectarines and remove the stones. Sprinkles with a handful of thyme, rosemary and a little lemon juice. Add a tiny sprinkle of caster sugar.

• Cook the nectarines on high on both sides. Add a little water, a teaspoon or two, to the pan make a little syrup on the pan.
• Remove from the pan and set aside.
• In a separate pan cook the chicken on a low heat, or steam however you fancy cooking it.
• When it's cooked remove from the heat and cup up into thin slices. If you want the chicken hot do the chicken last.
• Cut up the lettuce and put it in a large bowl along with the chopped tomatoes, spring onions and the fresh thyme, rosemary and a little mint.
• Pull apart the mozzarella and Parma ham and add to the salad.
• Add the chicken and sprinkle with a little salt and pepper.
• Drizzle over the olive oil and the lemon juice.
• Add a small drizzle of balsamic vinegar over and with everything together before serving.
• Sprinkle with flaked almonds and enjoy.
