This makes such an elegant appetizer with sweet and savory flavors that are further complimented by the addition of buttery toasted pine nuts.
Ingredients
- 6 fresh apricots, halved and pitted
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon thyme leaves
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 2 tablespoons pine nuts
- 1-1/2 teaspoons aged balsamic vinegar
- 1 bunch, stemmed 4 ounces arugula
- 1 4-ounce log fresh goat cheese, cut into 12 slices
Directions
- Prepare a grill on high heat.
- Put the apricots in a bowl along with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, the thyme and few sprinkles of salt and pepper. Toss to coat and then place on the grill and cook for 2 minutes on each side.
