Description
A quick, elegant summer salad featuring charred peaches, creamy burrata, and fresh greens, ready in just 10 minutes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 medium ripe peaches (about 600g)
- 1 ball burrata cheese (7–8 oz / 200-230g)
- 4 cups mixed greens (baby arugula and butter lettuce)
- 1/2 cup fresh basil, torn
- 1/2 cup toasted walnuts or pecans (50g)
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1–2 teaspoons honey
- Flaky sea salt
- Freshly cracked black pepper
Instructions
- Wash peaches, pat dry, cut in half, and remove pits.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- Place peach halves cut-side down on the grill. Do not touch for 2 minutes to allow char marks to form.
- Flip peaches and grill for another 1-2 minutes until warm and slightly softened. Remove and set aside.
- Whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, and a pinch of salt to make the dressing.
- Toss mixed greens with a tiny drizzle of dressing and spread on a serving platter.
- Tear the burrata ball open over the center of the greens, letting the cream spill out.
- Arrange grilled peaches around and on top of the burrata.
- Sprinkle with toasted nuts, basil, and thyme.
- Drizzle with remaining dressing and finish with flaky sea salt and black pepper.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
Use ripe peaches that yield slightly to pressure. Keep burrata cold until serving to maintain texture. Do not reheat or freeze this salad as the cheese will separate and greens will wilt. Toast nuts for better flavor. Use flaky sea salt for texture contrast.
