A quick and easy summer salad combining smoky grilled peaches with creamy burrata and salty prosciutto, balanced by peppery greens and a tangy balsamic glaze.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 fresh peaches, firm and ripe, halved and pitted
  • 8 oz burrata cheese, torn into chunks
  • 6 oz thinly sliced prosciutto
  • 4 cups arugula or mixed greens
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing peaches
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze or reduction
  • Fresh basil leaves, torn (optional)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400°F).
  2. Brush peach halves lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking.
  3. Place peaches cut-side down on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes until grill marks form and peaches soften slightly.
  4. Flip peaches and grill skin side for another 2 minutes. Peaches should be tender but hold their shape.
  5. Place arugula or mixed greens in a large salad bowl or serving platter. Drizzle with olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper.
  6. Tear burrata into chunks and scatter over the greens.
  7. Arrange prosciutto slices around the salad, folding them delicately.
  8. Add grilled peaches to the salad, either sliced into wedges or halved.
  9. Tear fresh basil leaves over the top, if using.
  10. Drizzle balsamic glaze generously over the salad and add a pinch of freshly cracked black pepper.
  11. Serve immediately while peaches are warm and burrata is creamy.

Notes

Let burrata sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before assembling for creamier texture. Brush peaches with olive oil before grilling to prevent sticking. Avoid overgrilling peaches to keep them tender but not mushy. Serve immediately for best flavor and texture.
