Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup pecans, roughly chopped
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the grill
2 7-ounce ham steaks
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar or white balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons dijon mustard
2 tablespoons chopped mixed fresh herbs (such as chives and tarragon)
2 tablespoons chopped mixed fresh herbs (such as chives and tarragon)
1 shallot, minced
3 peaches (about 1 pound), cut into 1/2-inch wedges
1 5-ounce package mesclun greens (about 8 cups)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium. Toast the pecans in a dry skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, 5 to 7 minutes; set aside.
  • Lightly brush the grill grates with olive oil. Add the ham steaks and grill until marked and heated through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a cutting board and slice into 1/2-inch-thick strips; set aside.
  • Whisk the vinegar, honey, mustard, herbs and shallot in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until emulsified. Add the peaches, mesclun, pecans and ham and gently toss. Season with salt and pepper and top with the goat cheese.

This salad is a great way to get your kids to eat their fruits and vegetables. My kids loved the sweet peaches and grilled ham, and they didn't even notice the spinach.

I'm not a fan of peaches, so I used grilled pineapple instead. It was a great substitute and the salad was still very tasty.

I grilled the peaches and ham, but I didn't use goat cheese. Instead, I added a crumbled blue cheese. It was still delicious, and I think the blue cheese added a bit more complexity to the flavor.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover ham. I also added some chopped walnuts for extra crunch. It was a delicious and satisfying meal.

This salad was so easy to make, and it turned out so delicious! I used leftover ham from Easter dinner, and it was perfect. The dressing was also really good - I loved the combination of sweet and tangy.

I'm not a huge fan of ham, but this salad changed my mind! The grilled ham had a lovely smoky flavor that paired perfectly with the sweet peaches and tangy goat cheese. I'll definitely be making this again.
