Grilled Peach & Burrata Salad: A Summer Delight
Save
Imagine the sweet perfume of ripe peaches meeting the silky decadence of burrata, all drizzled with a bright balsamic‑honey vinaigrette. This Grilled Peach & Burrata Salad captures that moment, turning a simple brunch into a summer celebration.
What sets this dish apart is the contrast between the caramelized, smoky peach wedges and the cool, buttery interior of the cheese. The peppery arugula and fresh basil add a herbaceous bite that balances the natural sweetness, while the honey‑balsamic glaze ties everything together with a glossy finish.
Garden lovers, brunch enthusiasts, and anyone craving a light yet indulgent start to the day will adore this salad. It shines on lazy weekend mornings, holiday brunch tables, or even as a sophisticated side at a garden party.
The process is delightfully simple: grill the peach halves, toss the greens with a quick vinaigrette, arrange the creamy burrata, and finish with a drizzle of glaze and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.

Preparing the Peaches
Start by brushing each peach half lightly with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkling a pinch of sea salt. This thin coating prevents sticking and encourages caramelization. Pre‑heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium‑high (about 400°F). Place the peaches cut‑side down and grill for 3–4 minutes, until grill marks appear and the flesh softens. Flip and grill another 2 minutes for a subtle smoky flavor.
