A simple yet elegant salad featuring smoky grilled peaches, creamy burrata, and a spicy-sweet hot honey drizzle that creates a perfect balance of flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium ripe peaches, halved and pitted
  • 8 ounces burrata cheese
  • 4 cups mixed greens (arugula or baby spinach)
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (for tossing greens)
  • ¼ cup hot honey (honey infused with chili flakes or cayenne)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional garnishes: toasted pine nuts or slivered almonds, fresh basil leaves

Instructions

  1. Wash and halve 4 medium ripe peaches, removing the pits. Brush the cut sides lightly with extra virgin olive oil.
  2. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (around 400°F).
  3. Place peaches cut-side down on the grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes until caramelized grill marks appear. Flip and grill for another 2 minutes on the skin side to warm through.
  4. In a small bowl, mix ¼ cup honey with ½ teaspoon chili flakes or a pinch of cayenne pepper. Stir and let sit for a few minutes to infuse heat.
  5. In a large bowl, toss 4 cups mixed greens with 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, sea salt, and pepper.
  6. Arrange greens on a serving platter or plates. Tear burrata into chunks and place on top. Arrange grilled peaches around the cheese and greens.
  7. Drizzle the hot honey generously over the salad. Finish with flaky sea salt, cracked black pepper, and optional toasted pine nuts or fresh basil leaves.
  8. Serve immediately while peaches are warm and burrata is cool and creamy.

Notes

Let burrata sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before assembling to enhance creaminess. Prepare hot honey drizzle in advance to save time. Use peaches that are ripe but firm to avoid mushy grilled fruit. Adjust chili flakes in hot honey to control heat level.
