Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 ripe peaches, halved and pitted
  • 4 cups fresh arugula
  • 1 ball burrata cheese
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Brush the peach halves with olive oil and place them cut-side down on the grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes until grill marks appear and the peaches are slightly charred. Remove from the grill and let them cool slightly.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine the balsamic vinegar and honey. Simmer over low heat for 5-7 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and let it cool.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the arugula with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange the arugula on a serving platter. Top with the grilled peach halves, torn burrata cheese, and fresh basil leaves. Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the top.
  4. Serve the salad immediately while the peaches are still warm. Enjoy the perfect balance of sweet, savory, and creamy flavors!

Notes

Choose ripe but firm peaches for grilling. Add toasted nuts for extra crunch. You can prepare the peaches and balsamic glaze ahead of time, but assemble the salad just before serving to keep the arugula fresh.
