Grilled Peach & Burrata Salad
Oftentimes the simplest of dishes create the most impact. This Grilled Peach & Burrata Salad is beautiful and bursting with flavor!
I love summer just for the fact peaches are in season. The juicier the better. I’ve been told by my husband before to tone it down when I eat a peach. That’s a challenge when it’s so juicy. Have you found that to be true as well?
Actually though for this recipe I seek out the firm peaches. Why? Because once on the grill they soften up. So seeking out a firm peach is best. Then once cut in half, remove the pit and rub with olive oil. Simply place on a medium heat grill cut side down until grill marks appear. Flip peach half over for another few minutes. Once charred and softened, remove from grill until ready to serve.
I prefer arugula for this dish but feel free to opt out for your favorite greens.
Place on a bed of arugula, topped with a grilled peach half. Then place a sliced half of burrata on top of the cut side of peach, and drizzle with balsamic. The flavors explode in your mouth.
The combination of the burrata and the peach with an aged balsamic is phenomenal!
The best part is that this takes little time to create and makes such a statement. Everyone will enjoy this!
So what are you waiting for?
