Print Recipe

A quick and easy summer salad featuring smoky grilled peaches, creamy burrata, salty prosciutto, and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. Perfect for a light, refreshing meal that feels fancy without the fuss.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 ripe but firm peaches, halved and pitted
  • 8 ounces fresh burrata cheese
  • 4 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic reduction (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • A handful of fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 4 cups arugula or mixed greens
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Lemon juice (optional, for brightness)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat (around 400°F / 200°C) for about 5 minutes.
  2. Rinse peaches gently, slice each in half, and remove pits. Brush cut sides lightly with olive oil.
  3. Place peaches cut-side down on the grill and grill for 3-4 minutes until grill marks appear and peaches soften but remain firm.
  4. Flip peaches and grill skin side for another 2 minutes to warm through. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  5. While peaches grill, toss arugula or mixed greens in a bowl with remaining olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, and optional lemon juice. Set aside.
  6. On a serving platter, lay down the dressed greens evenly.
  7. Tear burrata into chunks and scatter over the greens.
  8. Slice each peach half into 3-4 wedges and arrange on top of the salad.
  9. Tear prosciutto into bite-sized pieces and drape across the salad.
  10. Scatter torn basil leaves over everything.
  11. Drizzle balsamic vinegar and balsamic reduction (if using) generously over the salad.
  12. Add a final pinch of sea salt and cracked black pepper to taste.
  13. Serve immediately while peaches are still slightly warm and burrata is creamy.

Notes

Chill burrata briefly before assembling to make tearing easier. Use fresh, firm peaches for best grilling results. Balsamic reduction adds sweetness and acidity—use sparingly to avoid overpowering the salad. If no grill is available, sear peaches in a hot skillet with butter and brown sugar as an alternative.
