Ingredients

Scale
  • 34 ripe but firm fresh peaches, halved and pitted
  • 8 ounces (225g) fresh burrata cheese
  • 68 thin slices prosciutto, torn into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 cups (about 120g) baby arugula or mixed greens, washed and dried
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic glaze (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400°F or 200°C), approximately 5-7 minutes.
  2. Rinse and pat dry peaches, then halve and carefully remove pits, leaving the skin on. Brush each half lightly with olive oil.
  3. Place peaches cut side down on the grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes until char marks appear and peaches soften slightly. Flip and grill skin side for another 2 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
  4. While peaches grill, toss arugula or mixed greens in a bowl with lemon juice, a drizzle of olive oil, sea salt, and cracked black pepper.
  5. Arrange dressed greens on a serving platter. Tear burrata into chunks and scatter over the greens.
  6. Place grilled peaches on top, followed by torn prosciutto slices.
  7. Drizzle balsamic glaze generously over the entire salad.
  8. Add an extra sprinkle of flaky sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

If peaches seem too firm, let them sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before grilling. Be gentle when handling burrata to preserve its creamy texture. For a dairy-free version, substitute burrata with almond-based soft cheese or vegan mozzarella. The salad is best served immediately while peaches are warm and burrata is fresh. Leftovers should be stored separately and burrata added just before serving.
