Ingredients
  

Salad Ingredients
  • 2 ripe nectarines, grilled and sliced Choose nectarines that are ripe for the best flavor.
  • 8 oz burrata cheese Can substitute with fresh mozzarella if necessary.
  • 4 oz turkey ham, sliced Ensure it's halal-compliant.
  • Mixed greens (arugula, spinach, etc.) Use a mix of your favorite fresh greens.
  • Olive oil For grilling and dressing.
  • Balsamic glaze Adds sweetness and acidity.
  • Salt and pepper to taste Adjust according to your preference.

Method
 

Grilling the Nectarines
  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Halve the nectarines and remove the pit.
  2. Lightly brush each half with olive oil and place them cut-side down on the grill.
  3. Grill for about 3–4 minutes or until beautifully caramelized, then flip and grill for an additional 2 minutes.
  4. Set aside to cool slightly.
Preparing the Salad
  1. While the nectarines are grilling, wash and dry the mixed greens thoroughly.
  2. In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, sliced turkey ham, and grilled nectarines.
  3. Tear the burrata into pieces and distribute over the salad.
Dressing the Salad
  1. Drizzle the salad with olive oil and balsamic glaze, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Toss very gently to avoid damaging the greens.
Serving
  1. Serve immediately and enjoy the burst of flavors and textures in every bite.

Notes

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Best enjoyed fresh. If reheating turkey ham, do so gently in the microwave for about 20 seconds, without microwaving the salad itself.
