Grilled Peaches with Burrata and Pistachio Herb Vinaigrette.
We love these grilled peaches with burrata cheese! Smoky grilled peaches, topped with creamy burrata cheese and a minty, herby pistachio vinaigrette. Perfect to serve as a salad, appetizer, with a BBQ or for dessert!
It’s a new week and time to grill your peaches!
These grilled peaches topped with burrata and a summer herb dressing are my new favorite thing. Until my next favorite thing comes along!Â
Grilled peaches are a staple for us in the summer. Often, I only get a few peaches and I have to figure out what I want to do with them! Eat them straight, throw them in yogurt (my breakfast daily), put them on pizza, make them into cobbler or grill them for fun.Â
The options are endless but the good peaches are not! They end. Quickly!Â
So, I’m here to make the case for why you should grill your peaches and top them with cheese. And tangy garden herbs.Â
This is SUCH a fun summer recipe to make. I love it to serve with dinner, but it could also be a somewhat savory dessert. It could also be your salad!
Yes, you heard me right. I’m not crazy. This peach topped with cheese and herbs could be the starter to your summer sunday night dinner. No one would complain!Â
This is what we’ve got going on:
Grilled peaches! Straight up sliced, pitted and thrown right on the grill. Maybe with a pinch of salt.Â
Fresh burrata cheese. It’s so creamy and delicious!
A minty herby pistachio vinaigrette that is outstanding. Think chimichurri, but made with tons of fresh mint and cilantro. It’s so fresh and bright and adds such elevation to any dish. And it’s crunchy!Â
Yes, the vinaigrette is more like the consistency of traditional chimichurri than it is of a vinaigrette. It doesn’t make a ton, but it makes enough to drizzle. The perfect amount. Plus, pistachios are my love language.Â
There are three different components to this dish but they come together quickly. And while I really love the herby dressing when it’s fresh, you can make it a few hours before and it’s fab.Â
The combination of warm peaches with cold, creamy cheese and herbs is also a dream. It’s full of delicious flavor, texture and just about anything you want in a summer dish.
Grilled Peaches with Burrata
Grilled Peaches with Burrata and Herb Vinaigrette
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 3 tablespoons pistachios, chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- kosher salt and pepper
- 4 peaches, pitted and sliced in half
- 8 ounces burrata cheese
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, pistachios, mint and cilantro. Add in a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside until the peaches are ready.
- Brush or spray the peaches with olive oil. Sprinkle with some kosher salt.
- Heat the grill on the highest setting. Once hot, add the peaches cut-side down. Grill for 3 to 4 minutes, rotating the peaches once during cooking time.
- Have the burrata out and ready to go, because you will pull it apart for the top of the peaches. As soon as the peaches come off the grill, top with some burrata. Drizzle with the herby vinaigrette. Serve!
