Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 tbsp fresh lime juice
1/2 tsp smoked paprika (sweet or hot )
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
5 tbsp mild extra-virgin olive oil
4 cups 1-inch pieces cantaloupe flesh ( from 2 1/2- to 3-lb melon)
4 cups 1-inch pieces honeydew flesh ( from 2 1/2- to 3-lb melon)
4 large bunches arugula (1 1/2 lb), coarse stems discarded
8 oz sliced serrano ham (1/16 inch thick), cut crosswise into 3/4-inch-wide strips

Directions:

Make dressing: Whisk together lime juice, paprika, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and add oil in a slow stream, whisking until well blended.
Make salad: Toss cantaloupe and honeydew with half of dressing in a bowl. Toss arugula and ham with remaining dressing in a large bowl, then add melon and salt and pepper to taste, tossing gently. Serve immediately.
* Available by mail order through The Spanish Table (206-682-2827) and .
Cook's note: It's important that the ham not be sliced as thin as prosciutto usually is. Slightly thicker ham is easier to cut into strips and will stay separated in a salad instead of clumping together.
