A quick and easy salad featuring grilled peaches, creamy burrata, fresh greens, and a homemade balsamic glaze that balances sweet, tangy, and smoky flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe but firm peaches, halved and pitted
  • 8 oz (225 g) fresh burrata, drained and at room temperature
  • 4 cups (about 120 g) mixed greens (arugula or baby spinach)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ cup (120 ml) balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • Sea salt to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • A handful of fresh basil leaves, torn (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the balsamic glaze by pouring ½ cup balsamic vinegar and 2 tablespoons honey into a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir to combine, bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 10–15 minutes until thickened to a syrupy consistency. Remove from heat and let cool.
  2. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high. Brush each peach half lightly with olive oil.
  3. Grill peaches cut side down for 3–5 minutes until grill marks appear and peaches soften. Flip and grill skin side for another 2 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
  4. On a large platter or plates, spread mixed greens. Tear burrata into chunks and scatter over greens. Slice grilled peaches into wedges and arrange on top.
  5. Drizzle salad with extra virgin olive oil, season with sea salt and black pepper. Spoon cooled balsamic glaze over peaches and burrata. Scatter torn basil leaves on top.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve immediately.

Notes

Use firm peaches to prevent mushiness on the grill. Brush peaches with oil instead of the grill to avoid flare-ups. Let balsamic glaze cool before drizzling to prevent melting the burrata. Burrata should be at room temperature for best creaminess. Season in layers for optimal flavor.
