And cheese…plenty of amazing cheese on these tarts!
But what’s a good savory tart without some awesome cheese??? Probably not one I would make, but to each their own. You know I cannot live without cheese.
Oh, and… BALSAMIC ROASTED PEACHES.
Those get two thumbs up and then some. It will be a sad day when the peaches are gone…but then there are apples, so maybe not so sad actually?? I don’t know, I love them both!!
Oh and guys, happy August!! I still cannot believe it’s August, but I have made it may goal to live it up this last full month of summer with some KILLER recipes. I am talking, corn, zucchini, peaches and tomatoes galore. AND of course I’m also thinking some ice cream too, I mean duh.
Ok, ok and I maybe have a kind of fun post that I’m already pretty excited about. What?!? You guys, we are all friends here and it’s kind of hard not to share my excitement with you all. The anticipation is real.
The point is August is going to be full of goodness around here and basically the blog is about to reach it’s all time most delicious level, and it all starts with these tarts.
At first, this recipe was so many other things than the tarts you see here. Starting out, this was actually a lamb recipe. It turned out beautifully, but I don’t know, I wasn’t that into my lamb chops. Honestly, I think I maybe just had some fatty lamb and I didn’t like the way they looked. Either way, I got pretty discouraged and ditched the lamb and then somehow the remaining ingredients morphed into these tarts.
I REALLY wanted to make you guys a quick and simple summer recipe. I knew I wanted to use balsamic vinegar and peaches, like that combo was a must. My original thoughts were to just do balsamic peaches with chicken in a pan and then call it a day. Great recipe, but just a little boring and umm, where are carbs??
You guys know how I feel about carb-less meals, and for some reason I really like showing you complete meals. I know that you would be happy with just a chicken recipe, but I feel guilty making you figure out what to put with it. Make sense? Probably not.
It’s my brain. It tends to fight me on things like this…crazy person.
Somewhere along the brainstorming line and in between texts from my mom and little sister about possible dogs (I want a dog so bad, but training one?? Not so much…the struggle…the decision…ugh) I decided that basil chicken and prosciutto tarts were the perfect answer to the mini “issue” I was having.
First off puff pastry is THE BEST and anytime it’s used in a recipe you know the recipe is going to be good. Plus, the pastry provides the carbs I am looking for and makes the recipe SO easy.
And so delicious. Heck yes.
You can make this entire meal in less than an hour with most of that hour being in the cooking. Which means that for a good 35-40 minutes while these pretty tarts are baking you can be chillaxing doing whatever it is you want. If you are me, that means making a batch of ice cream, but I get the feeling some of you may be a lot cooler than me and actually grab a drink and chill.
I don’t know how to chill…
And yes, those peaches? Those peaches are everything!! The flavors were inspired by this incredible salad, which you should all make with any leftover peaches you may have.
I love fresh peaches, but peaches roasted with a little honey and a little balsamic is a game changer guys. No really.
Put them on a piece of cheesy, flaky puff pastry with basil and prosciutto and well, you’ll have a combo that will win over just about anyone. This is definitely one of these easy meals that will impress all.
And I will not tell if you fib a little and say you made your own pastry…

I’m not a big fan of peach skin… would it affect the recipe at all if I removed it?
Hey Jamie,
If you do not like it, I would remove it. No big deal. Either remove it after cooking or cook the peaches a little less long if you remove it before cooking. Hope you love this!
Those peaches look heavenly! A dog? Oh go to that local shelter and get a “mature” dog that is already trained! With the animals already in residence, a nod to calm demeanor is probably required! You won’t regret the seasoned pet!
I can’t believe it is August either! Crazy! These tarts are calling my name, I have been all about peaches this summer!!
This is so dreamy! I’m in love with those caramelized peaches! I would never have thought to drizzle them with balsamic, but that sounds divine. Can’t wait to give this recipe a try!

Those peaches…perfectly caramelized…
Every time I get a new email from you, I prepare my eyes to be blinded by gorgeous images of food! And I was wondering where the chicken is at…then I saw the last image. Now I wanna make these! Le sigh
I have just found your blog and I must say that it’s truly amazing! Everything you do looks so incredibly delicious and the photographs are almost addictive. I am definitely going to drop by from now on! 🙂
So many delicious things on these tarts! I don’t even know where to start.
Thanks Laura!! Hope you had a great day!!
I am all about roasted fruit! It takes on a whole new level! This is thee perfect appetizer!
TOTALLY makes sense to me about the whole carb-meal shenanigans. I like making compl-eat meals too! 😉
ALSO, I LOVE balsamic and peaches together, so these little bites of tart perfection are going in my mouth ASAP!
Pinned!
Right?!?!
Thanks so much, Taylor! Hoping you are having a great week!
OMW ! These look soooo tasty 🙂
Oh my, peaches are my favorite fruit! All these flavors sound delicious! I am totally going to find some local stone fruit to make this!
this sounds so fresh and flavorful! sometimes i feel like peaches can be a little bland, so i can imagine this would be a great way to fix that.
These roasted peaches look amazing!! and so does the tart! great recipe <3
