A quick and easy summer salad featuring smoky grilled peaches, creamy burrata, salty prosciutto, and a sweet-tangy balsamic honey drizzle. Perfect for summer parties or simple weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 34 ripe but firm peaches, halved and pitted
  • 8 ounces fresh burrata cheese
  • 4 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto
  • 4 cups mixed greens (arugula, baby spinach, or spring mix)
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • A handful of fresh basil leaves, torn (optional)
  • Salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat, about 400°F (205°C).
  2. Rinse and dry the peaches, slice in half and remove pits. Lightly brush each half with olive oil.
  3. Place peach halves cut-side down on the grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes until grill marks appear and peaches soften slightly but hold their shape. Flip and grill for another 2 minutes on the skin side. Remove and let cool slightly.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar and honey until smooth and glossy. Set aside.
  5. In a large bowl, toss mixed greens gently with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper to taste. Spread greens evenly on a serving platter or divide among plates.
  6. Slice each grilled peach half into 3-4 wedges and arrange on top of the greens.
  7. Tear burrata into chunks and scatter over the salad. Drape prosciutto slices around the peaches and cheese.
  8. Tear basil leaves and sprinkle over the top.
  9. Drizzle the balsamic honey mixture evenly over the salad. Add extra black pepper if desired.
  10. Serve immediately while peaches are warm and burrata is creamy.

Notes

Let burrata sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before assembling for best texture. Lightly oil peaches before grilling to get perfect char marks. Assemble salad just before serving to keep greens fresh and burrata creamy. For vegetarian version, omit prosciutto and add toasted nuts. For vegan, substitute burrata with plant-based cheese and honey with maple syrup.
