Ingredients (for 4 people):
For the salad:
2 ripe peaches, sliced and pitted
1 tbsp olive oil
4 cups baby arugula
4 slices prosciutto, torn into bite-sized pieces
1 ball of burrata cheese
2 tbsp pine nuts, toasted
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
For the dressing:
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tsp honey
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions:
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Brush the peaches with olive oil.
Place the peaches on the grill and cook for 1-2 min. until grill marks form and the peaches are slightly softened. Flip and grill for an additional 1-2 min.
Remove the grilled peaches and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper until well combined. Set aside.
Arrange the arugula on a serving platter and top with whole burrata, grilled peach wedges, and torn prosciutto pieces.
Sprinkle toasted pine nuts evenly on top.
Season the salad with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Just before serving, drizzle the prepared olive oil mixture over the salad.
Serve the Burrata Summer Salad immediately, while the grilled peaches are still warm and the burrata is creamy. Enjoy!
