A fresh and flavorful salad featuring smoky grilled peaches, creamy burrata, and a tangy honey balsamic dressing. Perfect for summer gatherings or a light, elegant meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe but firm peaches, halved and pitted
  • 8 ounces fresh burrata cheese
  • 4 cups baby arugula
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat (about 400°F) for 5 minutes.
  2. Rinse and dry the peaches, slice in half and remove pits. Brush with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  3. Place peach halves cut side down on the hot grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes without moving to get grill marks.
  4. Flip peaches and grill skin side for another 2 minutes until tender but not mushy.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, honey, lemon juice, and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil until smooth.
  6. Toast pine nuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until golden and fragrant, stirring often (optional).
  7. On a large platter, arrange baby arugula as a bed. Cut grilled peaches into wedges and scatter over greens.
  8. Tear burrata into chunks and distribute evenly over the salad.
  9. Drizzle honey balsamic dressing generously over the salad.
  10. Sprinkle with toasted pine nuts, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper to finish.
  11. Serve immediately while peaches are still slightly warm.

Notes

Use firm, ripe peaches for best grilling results. Brush peaches with olive oil to prevent sticking. Whisk honey into balsamic vinegar before adding oil to avoid graininess. Serve salad immediately for best texture contrast. Burrata should be added fresh and not reheated. For vegan version, substitute burrata with plant-based cheese and honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
