Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 whole Peaches
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 12 large Shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 4 cups Mixed salad greens
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 cup Red onion (thinly sliced)
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Fresh basil leaves (chopped)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Cut the peaches in half, remove the pits, and slice each half into wedges.
Place the peach wedges on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Roast the peaches in the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until they are slightly caramelized and tender. Remove and let them cool slightly.
While the peaches are roasting, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Season the shrimp with a pinch of salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through. Remove from the heat and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, 1 tablespoon olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper to make the vinaigrette.
In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed salad greens, cherry tomatoes, and red onion slices.
Add the roasted peaches and cooked shrimp to the salad bowl.
Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Sprinkle the chopped basil leaves over the salad for a fresh, aromatic finish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your roasted peach and shrimp salad!
