A quick and elegant summer salad featuring grilled peaches, creamy burrata, peppery arugula, and a honey-balsamic vinaigrette. Ready in 15 minutes, it’s perfect for entertaining or a luxurious lunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 medium ripe but firm peaches
  • 8 ounces burrata (1–2 balls)
  • 4–5 cups loosely packed arugula
  • 2–3 tablespoons honey, plus more for drizzling
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (optional)
  • 1/4 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves
  • Flaky sea salt (like Maldon) and freshly ground black pepper
  • Optional: toasted pine nuts or walnuts, balsamic glaze, prosciutto slices

Instructions

  1. Wash and dry the peaches. Cut each peach in half along the seam, twist to separate, and remove the pit. Pat the cut sides dry with a paper towel.
  2. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high (about 400°F / 200°C). Brush the cut sides of the peaches lightly with olive oil.
  3. Place the peaches cut-side down on the hot grill. Cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes until grill marks appear and edges caramelize. Flip and grill for another 1-2 minutes on the skin side. Transfer to a plate and let cool slightly.
  4. While the peaches grill, make the honey vinaigrette: whisk together 2 tablespoons honey, 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (if using), and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small bowl. Adjust to taste.
  5. Spread the arugula on a large platter or wide bowl. Drizzle about half the vinaigrette over the greens and toss gently.
  6. Arrange the grilled peach halves cut-side up on top of the arugula.
  7. Gently tear or slice the burrata into pieces and nestle among the peaches.
  8. Drizzle the remaining vinaigrette over the peaches and burrata. Add a final drizzle of honey (about 1 tablespoon). Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and black pepper. Scatter fresh basil leaves over the top. Serve immediately.

Notes

Don’t skip drying the peaches before grilling to ensure caramelization. Let burrata come to room temperature for 20 minutes before serving. Grill peaches in batches if needed to avoid crowding. Best served immediately.
