Print Recipe

A simple and elegant summer salad featuring caramelized grilled peaches, creamy burrata, salty prosciutto, and a sweet-tart honey balsamic dressing. Perfect for light meals or entertaining.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 fresh peaches, ripe but firm (freestone preferred)
  • 8 ounces burrata cheese
  • 4 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto
  • 4 cups mixed greens or arugula
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (for dressing)
  • Handful fresh basil leaves, torn
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400°F).
  2. Slice peaches in half and remove pits. Cut each half into 3–4 thick slices (about ½ inch thick). Brush each slice lightly with olive oil.
  3. Place peach slices on the grill and cook about 3 minutes per side until grill marks appear and peaches soften slightly but hold their shape.
  4. While peaches grill, whisk together balsamic vinegar and honey in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in 1 tablespoon olive oil until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Arrange mixed greens or arugula on a serving platter. Tear burrata into chunks and scatter over greens.
  6. Layer grilled peaches and prosciutto slices over the salad. Sprinkle torn basil leaves on top.
  7. Drizzle honey balsamic dressing evenly over the salad. Add a final pinch of sea salt and cracked black pepper to taste.
  8. Serve immediately while peaches are warm and burrata is creamy.

Notes

Do not overcrowd the grill to ensure proper caramelization. Brush peaches with olive oil instead of oiling the grill. Flip peaches only once to avoid mushiness. Use ripe but firm peaches for best results. Prepare peaches and dressing ahead but grill and assemble just before serving for freshest texture.
