Print Recipe

A perfect summer salad featuring smoky grilled peaches, creamy burrata, salty prosciutto, and a tangy balsamic glaze. Light, fresh, and quick to prepare, ideal for warm evenings and gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ripe but firm peaches, halved and pitted
  • 8 ounces fresh burrata cheese
  • 6 slices thinly sliced prosciutto
  • 4 cups arugula or mixed greens
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • A small handful fresh basil leaves, torn
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Brush peach halves generously with olive oil.
  2. Grill peaches cut-side down for 3-4 minutes until grill marks appear and peaches soften slightly but hold shape. Flip and grill 2 more minutes on skin side. Remove and let cool for 5 minutes.
  3. While peaches grill, combine balsamic vinegar and honey in a small saucepan. Simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until syrupy and coats the back of a spoon, about 10-12 minutes. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
  4. Toss arugula or mixed greens with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl.
  5. On a serving platter, spread dressed greens as a bed. Tear burrata into chunks and scatter over greens. Arrange grilled peach halves on top.
  6. Drape prosciutto slices around and over the salad.
  7. Drizzle balsamic glaze over the salad. Scatter torn basil leaves on top. Add final pinch of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper if desired.
  8. Serve immediately while peaches are slightly warm and burrata is fresh and creamy.

Notes

Choose ripe but firm peaches to avoid mushy texture. Oil peaches generously to prevent sticking. Reduce balsamic glaze low and slow to avoid bitterness. Assemble salad just before serving to keep burrata fresh and peaches tender. Balsamic glaze can be made ahead and refrigerated; warm gently before use.
