Caprese Skewers

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make Balsamic Reduction

    Prepare the balsamic reduction by combining balsamic vinegar and olive oil in a small saucepan.

  2. 2

    Simmer Balsamic

    Heat over medium heat until the mixture starts to simmer. Lower the heat and let it reduce for about 5-10 minutes until it thickens slightly.

  3. 3

    Cool Balsamic

    Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.

  4. 4

    Assemble Skewers

    While the balsamic reduction cools, prepare the skewers by threading a cherry tomato, a basil leaf, and a mozzarella ball onto each skewer. Repeat until all ingredients are used.

  5. 5

    Dress Skewers

    Drizzle the skewers with pesto sauce and the cooled balsamic reduction. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  6. 6

    Serve or Refrigerate

    Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
