A quick and easy summer salad featuring grilled peaches, creamy burrata, and a honey drizzle, perfect for light meals or entertaining.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ripe but firm peaches, halved and pitted
  • 8 ounces fresh burrata cheese
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • A handful fresh basil leaves, roughly torn
  • 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: toasted pine nuts or chopped walnuts
  • Optional: balsamic glaze

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (around 400°F / 200°C).
  2. Rinse and dry peaches thoroughly. Slice them in half and remove the pits carefully.
  3. Brush the cut sides of the peaches lightly with extra virgin olive oil.
  4. Place peaches cut-side down on the grill and cook for about 3–4 minutes without moving them.
  5. Flip peaches gently and grill the skin side for another 2 minutes until tender but still holding shape.
  6. Transfer the peaches to a serving platter and sprinkle lightly with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  7. Tear the burrata into large chunks and scatter over and around the peaches.
  8. Tear basil leaves and sprinkle evenly over the salad.
  9. Drizzle honey evenly over the peaches and burrata, then add a splash of fresh lemon juice.
  10. If desired, sprinkle toasted pine nuts or walnuts and drizzle balsamic glaze.
  11. Serve immediately while peaches are warm and burrata is cool and creamy.

Notes

Use firm peaches to prevent them from falling apart on the grill. Brush peaches with olive oil to avoid sticking and enhance caramelization. Serve immediately for best texture contrast between warm peaches and cool burrata. Leftovers can be refrigerated up to 24 hours; reheat peaches gently before serving again.
