Burrata with Burst Cherry Tomatoes and Pesto
A quick broil of cherry tomatoes concentrates their flavor and the light char lends a slight smokiness. Creamy burrata and basil pesto make for a fun take on traditional Caprese salad flavors. If you’re wanting a bit of crunch in this dish, frying the basil leaves yields a crisp topping to add another texture dimension.
