Instructions
Step 1: Fire up the Arteflame grill
- Pour some vegetable oil onto three paper napkins.
- Place the napkins in the grill and stack firewood on top.
- Light the paper and allow the fire to burn for about 20 minutes until the cooktop reaches the desired temperature.
Step 2: Prepare the peaches
- Brush the peach halves with melted butter.
- Place them cut-side down on the flat cooktop near the center for a caramelized sear.
- Cook for 2–3 minutes until they develop grill marks.
- Move the peaches to a cooler area of the cooktop and cook for another 2 minutes until softened.
- Slice peaches into thin wedges.
Step 3: Crisp the prosciutto
- Place the prosciutto slices on the hot cooktop.
- Cook for 1–2 minutes until crisp, flipping once.
- Remove and let cool, then break into smaller pieces.
Step 4: Grill the flatbread
- Spread a thin layer of butter on both sides of the flatbread.
- Place the flatbread on the cooktop for 1–2 minutes per side.
- Remove when it turns crispy and golden brown.
Step 5: Assemble the flatbread
- Spread goat cheese evenly over the warm flatbread.
- Top with grilled peach slices and crispy prosciutto.
- Drizzle with honey and sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper.
- Garnish with fresh arugula.
Tips
- Use ripe but firm peaches to ensure they caramelize without becoming mushy.
- Move ingredients around the cooktop to take advantage of varying heat zones.
- Drizzle balsamic glaze instead of honey for extra depth of flavor.
