Print Recipe

These skewers combine juicy grilled peaches, creamy burrata, fresh basil, and a drizzle of aged balsamic vinegar for a quick, easy, and flavorful summer appetizer or side dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 firm but ripe fresh peaches, halved and pitted
  • 8 ounces burrata cheese (1 ball)
  • Fresh basil leaves (about 12-16 leaves)
  • 3 tablespoons aged balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes

Instructions

  1. Wash and halve the peaches, removing the pits. Brush each half lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  2. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400°F).
  3. Place peach halves cut side down on the grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes until grill marks appear and peaches soften slightly but still hold their shape.
  4. Flip peaches and grill for another 2 minutes on the skin side. Remove and let cool slightly.
  5. Cut the grilled peaches into bite-sized wedges.
  6. Tear burrata into small chunks (about 1-inch pieces).
  7. Thread onto skewers in this order: peach wedge, basil leaf, burrata, and repeat until the skewer is full (usually 3-4 pieces of each).
  8. Arrange skewers on a serving platter. Drizzle generously with aged balsamic vinegar and a little extra olive oil if desired.
  9. Add a sprinkle of cracked black pepper and a pinch of flaky sea salt for the final touch.
  10. Serve immediately or at room temperature.

Notes

Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning. If burrata is too soft to skewer, chill it for 15 minutes first. Do not overcrowd skewers to allow flavors to shine and for better presentation. For a vegan version, substitute burrata with marinated tofu and use a maple-balsamic glaze.
