A simple and delicious summer salad featuring smoky grilled peaches, creamy burrata cheese, and salty prosciutto, perfect for quick dinners or gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 34 medium ripe peaches, halved and pitted
  • 8 ounces burrata cheese
  • 4 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto
  • 4 cups arugula or mixed greens
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 12 tablespoons balsamic glaze or reduction
  • A handful fresh basil leaves, torn
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 375°F / 190°C).
  2. Rinse and dry the peaches, then slice each in half and carefully remove the pit. Brush the cut sides lightly with olive oil.
  3. Place the peaches cut side down on the grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes until grill marks appear and peaches start to soften.
  4. Flip and grill the skin side for another 2 minutes until warm and slightly caramelized but not mushy.
  5. Arrange the arugula or mixed greens on a large platter or bowl. Drizzle with a small amount of olive oil and lemon juice if using, then toss lightly.
  6. Slice each grilled peach half into 2-3 wedges and arrange over the greens.
  7. Tear the burrata into bite-sized pieces and scatter over the salad.
  8. Drape thin slices of prosciutto over the salad.
  9. Sprinkle torn fresh basil leaves over everything, then season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  10. Drizzle balsamic glaze across the salad.
  11. Serve immediately while peaches are warm and burrata is creamy.

Notes

Choose peaches that are ripe but firm to avoid mushiness. Oil grill grates to prevent sticking. Let burrata come to room temperature before serving for best flavor. Assemble salad just before serving to keep ingredients fresh. For dairy-free option, substitute burrata with almond-based cheese and prosciutto with smoked turkey or grilled mushrooms.
