Print Recipe

A quick and easy summer salad featuring smoky grilled peaches, creamy burrata cheese, and a tangy homemade balsamic reduction. Perfect as a light lunch, side dish, or elegant starter.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 medium fresh peaches, ripe but firm
  • 1 ball (8 oz) burrata cheese
  • ½ cup (120 ml) balsamic vinegar
  • 1–2 tablespoons (15–30 ml) honey
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) extra virgin olive oil
  • A handful of fresh basil leaves, torn or chiffonade-cut
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the balsamic reduction: Pour ½ cup balsamic vinegar and 1-2 tablespoons honey into a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer until thickened to a syrupy consistency, about 10-12 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  2. Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
  3. Slice the peaches in half and remove the pits. Cut each half into 3-4 wedges. Lightly brush with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.
  4. Grill the peach slices for 3-4 minutes per side until grill marks appear and peaches soften slightly but hold their shape.
  5. Arrange grilled peaches on a serving platter. Tear burrata into chunks and scatter over the peaches. Sprinkle fresh basil leaves and add freshly ground black pepper.
  6. Drizzle the cooled balsamic reduction over the salad.
  7. Add a bit more olive oil and a tiny pinch of sea salt if needed. Serve immediately.

Notes

Use firm peaches for grilling to prevent them from falling apart. The balsamic reduction can be made ahead and stored refrigerated for up to one week. For a dairy-free version, substitute burrata with soft tofu or plant-based cheese and replace honey with maple syrup. Watch the balsamic reduction carefully to avoid burning.
