Ingredients
  

For the Salad

  • 2 lb red Cherries pitted and halved
  • 1 ball Burrata
  • 2 oz bresola
  • 5 oz Arugula
  • ½ cup pistachios
  • ½ cup Mint or basil

Hot Honey Dressing

  • 3 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 teaspoon red wine vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon chili oil
  • ½ teaspoon dijon mustard
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions
 

  • Make the dressing: Combine all the dressing ingredients in a small bowl or jar. Whisk vigorously for about one minute until the dressing emulsifies and thickens to a silky, uniform texture.
  • Dress the greens: Place the arugula in a large salad bowl. Pour about half of the salad dressing over the arugula and toss until evenly coated.
  • Top the salad: Add the cherries and mint to the salad. Break the ball of burrata into 8-10 pieces using your hands or a knife, and distribute them evenly over the arugula. Fold the bresaola slices over twice and tuck them next to the burrata and cherries. Alternatively, you can slice the bresaola and sprinkle it on top. Drizzle the remaining hot honey dressing over the salad and serve.
