A fresh and effortless summer salad combining smoky grilled peaches, creamy burrata, salty prosciutto, and a drizzle of honey for a perfect balance of flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ripe but firm peaches, halved and pitted
  • 8 ounces fresh burrata cheese
  • 6 to 8 thin slices prosciutto, torn into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons raw or wildflower honey
  • 4 cups arugula or mixed greens
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: toasted pine nuts or chopped fresh basil leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (around 400°F / 200°C). Cut peaches in half and remove pits. Lightly brush cut sides with olive oil to prevent sticking. (5 minutes)
  2. Place peaches cut side down on the grill. Cook for 3-4 minutes without moving to get char marks. Flip and grill skin side for another 2 minutes until tender but not mushy. (7 minutes)
  3. While peaches grill, place arugula or mixed greens in a large bowl. Add olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Toss gently to coat evenly. (3 minutes)
  4. Transfer greens to serving platter. Tear burrata into chunks and scatter over greens. Arrange grilled peaches on top, skin side down. Drizzle honey evenly over the salad. (5 minutes)
  5. Tear prosciutto into bite-sized pieces and sprinkle over salad. Add optional toasted pine nuts or fresh basil leaves if desired. (3 minutes)
  6. Optionally, gently toss salad before serving or serve as is. Add a few cracks of fresh black pepper on top. (1 minute)

Notes

Brush peaches with olive oil to prevent sticking and get nice grill marks. Use medium-high heat to avoid burning peaches. Tear burrata gently by hand to keep creamy texture. Assemble salad just before serving to keep greens fresh. Drizzle honey last for shine and flavor. Optional garnishes add crunch and aroma.
