Ingredients
Scale
- 4 ripe but firm peaches, halved and pitted
- 8 ounces fresh burrata cheese, torn into chunks
- 3 tablespoons honey (mild, such as clover or wildflower)
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- A handful of fresh basil leaves, torn
- 4 cups arugula or baby greens (about 4 ounces)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: A squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a pinch of cracked black pepper in the honey drizzle
Instructions
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400°F).
- Rinse peaches gently and pat dry. Cut each peach in half and remove the pit carefully. Brush the cut sides lightly with olive oil.
- Place peaches cut side down on the grill. Cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes until char marks appear and fruit softens. Flip and grill the skin side for another 2 minutes (total grilling time 6-7 minutes).
- While peaches grill, whisk together honey and olive oil in a small bowl. Add a pinch of cracked black pepper or a teaspoon of lemon zest if desired. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, toss arugula or baby greens with torn basil leaves and a pinch of salt. Optionally drizzle a little olive oil.
- Arrange greens on a serving platter or individual plates. Place grilled peach halves on top, skin side down.
- Tear burrata into chunks and scatter over peaches and greens.
- Drizzle the honey mixture evenly over the salad.
- Finish with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Serve immediately.
Notes
Use peaches that are ripe but firm to hold their shape on the grill. Brush peaches with olive oil to prevent sticking and enhance caramelization. Let burrata soften at room temperature for 10 minutes before assembling. Make honey drizzle fresh and stir before use if thickened. Store components separately if saving leftovers.
