Grilled Peach Salad
Description
This salad features peaches halved and grilled until softened and slightly caramelized, bringing out their sugars and infusing them with a mild smoky flavor. The grilled peaches are sliced and combined with crunchy romaine, tender spinach, and peppery arugula, which have been tossed in a honey mustard dressing providing sweetness and tang. Sweetcorn kernels add bursts of juicy sweetness, while light feta cheese introduces creamy, salty contrast.
To finish, pine nuts sprinkle a delicate crunch atop the salad. The combination creates a well-rounded dish balancing sweet, savory, and fresh components. The salad works well as a refreshing lunch or a side alongside grilled meats or seafood.
Before grilling peaches, ensure the grill or griddle pan is clean to avoid imparting unwanted flavors and well-oiled to prevent sticking. Addition of crisp pancetta or cooked bacon can enhance the salad with smoky, savory notes.
