Ingredients and Equipment Notes
Mozzarella – you’ll want to buy the mini, fresh Mozzarella balls for this recipe. You could cube Mozzarella from a larger piece, but these little balls are the perfect size. You will find them in plastic containers packed in liquid. Prosciutto – prosciutto is a dry-cured ham that’s incredibly thin. You’ll find it in the deli section of the grocery store, unrefrigerated. Peaches or Nectarines– You’ll want ripe, but not mushy fruit. I actually prefer nectarines to peaches because you can leave the skins on, making the process really simple. I cut straight down the side of the fruit, around the pit, and then slice into small chunks about the size of the cheese. Fresh Basil – fresh basil leaves look really pretty on the skewers, and taste great too, but if you don’t like the textural element of the whole leaf, you can totally skip it. You get tons of great basil flavor from the vinaigrette.
Instructions
These simple skewers are so simple to put together and pack SO much flavor!
Serving Suggestions
These little peach prosciutto skewers make a great snack or appetizer, but you could also serve them at meal time alongside your favorite salad, or some grilled chicken or steak. You could also make a larger “salad” version of this flavor combination by skipping the skewers and layering slices of fresh mozzarella, peaches, and larger pieces of prosciutto and basil on a plate (think Caprese salad style).
