Ingredients  

  • 1/4 cup store-bought fig compote or jam (See Kelly's Notes)
  • 8 slices prosciutto
  • 4 cups arugula
  • Balsamic vinegar
  • Olive oil
  • 8 ounces Burrata cheese
  • 2 cups quartered fresh figs

Instructions 

  • Combine the fig compote with 1 tablespoon water in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, whisking occasionally, until warm and thinned slightly.
  • Place two slices of prosciutto on each of four serving plates.
  • In a medium bowl, toss the arugula with balsamic vinegar and olive oil, to taste. Divide the dressed arugula among the four plates, placing it atop the prosciutto.
  • Carefully slice the burrata and divide it among the four plates. Scatter the quartered fresh figs among the plates then drizzle each salad with the warmed compote.

Kelly's Notes:

  • Fig compote or jam can be found in most grocery stores either near the jams or near the cheese counter. My favorite brand is Dalmatia Fig Spread.
