ThemedLunchWrapsGrillSummerVegetarianMediterranean
Ingredients
- 2 large ripe but firm peaches
- 2 medium red bell peppers
- 1 medium yellow bell pepper
- 1 cup fresh corn kernels
- 1/3 cup fresh basil leaves
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 4 ounces soft goat cheese
- 2 cups baby arugula
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
Instructions
- 1Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat, about 400°F, and lightly oil the grates.
- 2Halve and pit the peaches, then cut each half into thick wedges so they hold shape on the heat.
- 3Core the bell peppers and slice them into wide strips; toss peaches, peppers, and corn kernels with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
- 4Place peach wedges and pepper strips on the hot grill; cook 3 to 4 minutes per side until grill marks appear and the fruit softens slightly while staying juicy.
- 5Add the corn kernels in a grill basket or foil packet for the last 2 minutes so they char lightly without falling through.
- 6Transfer everything to a cutting board; roughly chop the grilled peaches and peppers into wrap-friendly pieces and keep the corn whole.
- 7Warm the tortillas on the grill for 20 to 30 seconds per side until pliable and lightly toasted.
- 8Spread a generous smear of goat cheese down the center of each tortilla, then layer arugula, the warm grilled mixture, and torn basil leaves.
- 9Drizzle a little balsamic vinegar over the filling, fold in the sides, and roll tightly into secure wraps.
- 10Slice each wrap in half on the bias if packing for lunch; the residual heat wilts the arugula just enough without making the tortilla soggy.
- 11Serve warm or at room temperature within a couple of hours for the best contrast of smoky fruit and creamy cheese.
