Instructions

Make the Balsamic Reduction

  1. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan over low heat, warm the balsamic vinegar.
  2. Bring to a gentle boil, and reduce by half.
  3. When reduced and sticky, remove from the heat, and let cool.

Prepare the Skewers

  1. Slice the Jamón Serrano down the middle so the slices are thinner. This will make them easier to wrap/weave through the skewers, as you will use one of these half slices of Jamón on each skewer.
  2. Skewer the bottom of a slice of Jamón Serrano, then add a chunk of melon and a leaf of basil.
  3. Using the same long slice of Jamón Serrano, skewer it again, then add another chunk of melon and a basil leaf.
  4. Repeat multiple times until you run out of Jamón Serrano, then repeat for other skewers.
  5. Finish with a drizzle of the balsamic reduction, and serve chilled!
