Ingredients

Scale
  • 34 ripe but firm fresh peaches, halved and pitted
  • 1 large ball (8 oz) fresh burrata cheese, drained and at room temperature
  • 4 cups (about 4 oz) baby arugula or mixed greens, washed and dried
  • 2 tablespoons honey (preferably raw or wildflower)
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (aged or glaze style)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: 1/4 cup (about 1 oz) toasted pine nuts or sliced almonds for crunch

Instructions

  1. Rinse and dry peaches. Cut in half and remove pits. Lightly brush cut sides with olive oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Preheat grill or grill pan over medium-high heat until hot enough to get grill marks.
  3. Place peaches cut side down on grill. Cook 3-4 minutes until grill marks appear and peaches are slightly softened but still hold shape. Flip and cook skin side for 2 more minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together honey and balsamic vinegar until smooth. Slowly add olive oil while whisking to emulsify. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Spread baby arugula or mixed greens evenly on a large serving platter.
  6. Tear burrata into rustic pieces and distribute evenly over the greens.
  7. Slice grilled peaches into wedges and arrange over burrata and greens.
  8. Drizzle honey balsamic dressing evenly over the salad. Optionally sprinkle toasted pine nuts or sliced almonds. Add fresh ground black pepper and flaky sea salt to taste.
  9. Serve immediately to enjoy peaches warm and burrata creamy.

Notes

Let burrata sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before assembling to soften texture. Brush peaches with olive oil to prevent sticking and get good grill marks. Use medium-high heat to avoid burning peaches. Whisk dressing well before drizzling. Store components separately if making ahead.
