Honeydew With Prosciutto, Olives & Mint
- 1 1/2 ounces sliced prosciutto
- 1/2 ripe honeydew, peeled, seeded, and scooped into balls or chopped into big chunks (about 4 cups), chilled
- 3 tablespoons pitted, roughly chopped oil-cured olives
- 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves (smaller ones in tact, larger ones torn in half)
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon crushed Calabrian chilies
- 1 pinch flaky salt, if needed
- Preheat the oven to 400u0b0 F. Line a sheet pan with foil. Add the prosciutto in a single layer. Roast for 10 to 15 minutes until wrinkly and firm. It will crisp significantly as it cools. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, assemble the fruit salad. Combine the melon, olives, and mint in a bowl. Add the olive oil and Calabrian chilies. Gingerly toss, taking care not to smush the melon. Taste and season with salt if necessary-remember, the prosciutto will be very salty. When you're ready to serve, break the prosciutto into pieces and crumble on top.
