Print Recipe

A quick and easy summer salad featuring warm, caramelized grilled peaches paired with cold, creamy burrata, fresh basil, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. Perfect for weeknight dinners or impressing guests with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 ripe but firm peaches
  • 1 (8-ounce) ball fresh burrata
  • 8–10 fresh basil leaves
  • Balsamic glaze (store-bought or homemade)
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • Flaky sea salt (e.g., Maldon)
  • Optional: honey or hot honey, arugula, toasted pine nuts or walnuts, prosciutto slices

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (400-450°F / 200-230°C). Clean the grates and brush with a little oil.
  2. Wash and dry the peaches. Cut them in half along the natural seam, twist to separate, and remove the pit.
  3. Lightly brush the cut sides of the peach halves with olive oil and season with a tiny pinch of flaky sea salt.
  4. Place the peaches cut-side down on the hot grill. Cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes until deep grill marks form. Flip and grill for another 1-2 minutes on the skin side.
  5. Transfer the grilled peaches to a plate and let cool for 2-3 minutes (they should still be warm).
  6. Place the burrata ball in the center of a serving platter. Arrange the warm peach halves around it, cut-side up.
  7. Tear the basil leaves with your hands and scatter over the peaches and burrata.
  8. Drizzle generously with balsamic glaze, followed by a good drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and a few cracks of black pepper.
  9. Serve immediately while the peaches are warm and the burrata is cold and creamy.

Notes

Let the burrata sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes before serving for the best creamy texture. Don’t skip salting the peaches—it enhances sweetness and caramelization. Use firm but ripe peaches; overripe ones will turn to mush on the grill. For best results, serve immediately after assembling.
