Prosciutto and Orange Salad

This is an easy salad to prepare and I love the sweetness the orange brings to it. I’ve made this so many times that I don’t even know where the original recipe came from. The amounts are, therefore, a rough estimate so play around with it to fine tune to your liking! Enjoy!

Serves 4
6-8 slices of prosciutto
250g cherry tomatoes, halved
1 large navel orange, peeled and cut into segments
250g rocket
1 tablespoon olive oil

Saute the prosciutto in olive oil and remove when crisp. Add cherry tomatoes and lightly pan fry. Remove before getting mushy. Toss together prosciutto, tomatoes and orange segments. Season with salt and pepper and add more olive oil if needed.

The Culinary Chase’s Note: You could use regular bacon but prosciutto is a leaner cut and I find it has more flavor. I love the fact that everything in this recipe is fresh……..no store bought salad dressings!
