Ingredients

For the Shrimp
For the Dressing

Instructions

Heat your grill (or skillet) on medium-high. Season the shrimp with oil, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt and pepper. Once the grill has heated, place the shrimp on the grill and cook for about 2 minutes a side until pink. 

Meanwhile, husk the corn. Next, rub the corn with olive oil and grill for about 5-7 minutes, turning every so often so it chars evenly. Season with salt and pepper (optional to season with the smoked paprika as well). Let cool, and then remove the kernels from the ears using a knife.

Cook the nectarines. Using a knife, cut the peaches in half and remove the pit. Drizzle the flesh with oil. Place flesh side down onto an oiled grill and cook the peaches for about 4-5 minutes until it gets grill marks. Remove carefully with a spatula and tongs.

Make the dressing: Whisk all the ingredients for the dressing in a bowl.

To assemble: In a large salad bowl, toss the arugula with the diced avocado, corn, and enough dressing to moisten. Top the salad with seared peaches, torn burrata pieces, and grilled shrimp.

Roasted Herb Potato Salad

Ingredients

For the Vinaigrette

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a sheet tray with parchment paper. Cut the potatoes into quarters and line them on the sheet tray. Toss with garlic powder, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Bake for about45- 60 minutes until tender and browned (I like mine crispy which takes about 60 minutes but keep an eye on them. If you prefer them softer, not crispy, you can cook them for less time).

Make the dressing:

Using a hand zester or the smallest holes on a box grater, zest the entire lemon. Add zest to a bowl with the juice of the lemon. Finely chop herbs and add to the bowl along with the honey, dijon, a pinch of salt and pepper. Combine with a whisk then slowly whisk in the olive oil so that the sauce emulsifies.

Toss the dressing over the warm potatoes when they are done. Add in the arugula, sundried tomatoes and goat cheese. Taste and adjust salt and pepper accordingly. Serve warm or room temperature. Perfect summer side or lunch. Enjoy!
