- In a shallow dish, combine a drizzle of olive oil and thyme sprigs. Add the quartered apricots and turn to coat, rubbing the thyme sprigs against the fruit. Let sit for a few minutes.
- Pour olive oil and vinegar directly onto your serving platter. Add the thinly sliced red onion and mix with your hands to lightly pickle. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Heat the grill on medium. Place the apricots cut-side down and grill for 2 to 3 minutes, until caramelized. Flip and cook another 1 to 2 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Add arugula to the platter and toss with your hands through the dressing and onion until lightly coated.
- Nestle grilled apricots throughout. Tear burrata and place over the salad. Tuck prosciutto in loosely.
- Finish with extra thyme leaves, a squeeze of lemon if using, and a generous grind of black pepper and a pinch of salt. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Peaches or nectarines work beautifully if apricots aren’t available.
- Use a platter with slight depth so the dressing doesn’t run off.
- This salad is best served immediately.
