Print Recipe

A quick and easy summer salad featuring smoky grilled peaches, creamy burrata, salty prosciutto, fresh basil, and a balsamic glaze drizzle. Perfect for backyard barbecues or light meals.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium fresh ripe peaches, sliced into halves or thick wedges
  • 1 ball (8 oz) burrata cheese
  • 4 oz thinly sliced prosciutto
  • 1 cup fresh basil leaves, loosely packed
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze or reduction
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: 2 tablespoons toasted pine nuts or chopped walnuts

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (375-400°F). If using a grill pan, heat it over medium-high until hot.
  2. Wash and dry the peaches, slice into halves or thick wedges about ½ inch thick, and remove pits. Toss peach slices lightly with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  3. Place peach slices skin-side down on the grill or pan. Grill for 3-4 minutes per side until grill marks appear and peaches soften but hold together.
  4. While peaches grill, tear burrata into chunks and spread onto a serving plate. Scatter fresh basil leaves over and around the cheese.
  5. Drape thin slices of prosciutto across the salad.
  6. Arrange grilled peaches on top of the burrata and prosciutto so the warmth melts the cheese slightly.
  7. Drizzle remaining tablespoon of olive oil and balsamic glaze evenly over the salad. Sprinkle with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  8. Optionally, add toasted pine nuts or walnuts for crunch.
  9. Serve immediately while peaches are warm and burrata is creamy.

Notes

Use slightly firm peaches to prevent them from falling apart on the grill. Lightly oil peaches to avoid sticking but do not over-oil. Bring burrata to room temperature before serving for best creaminess. Watch grill temperature carefully to avoid burning peaches. For dairy-free, substitute burrata with firm tofu or vegan cheese. For vegan, replace prosciutto with maple-glazed tempeh.
