Griddled Zucchini Orange and Burrata Salad
Ingredients
Salad
- 2 medium courgettes (zucchini), sliced 1.5-2cm thick on the angle
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 large oranges, 1 segmented, 1 sliced in half and juiced for the dressing
- Handful lamb’s lettuce
- 1 burrata (Julienne Bruno Burella is a really good vegan alternative)
Orange chilli dressing
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp coconut or apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp chilli crisp
- 2 tbsp sunflower seeds, toasted
- Salt and pepper
Preparation
Griddle courgettes
Heat a griddle pan over medium-high heat for 5 minutes until evenly hot.
Combine the courgettes and olive oil in a bowl and season with a large pinch of salt and pepper.
Cook the courgettes for 3 minutes on each side until well charred, then remove.
Do this in batches if necessary.
You can also use a barbecue for this.
Make dressing
Combine the olive oil, orange juice, coconut or apple cider vinegar, chilli crisp, sunflower seeds, salt and pepper in a bowl and whisk to combine.
Assemble salad
Plate the courgettes, orange segments, lamb's lettuce, and burrata.
Generously drizzle over the orange chilli dressing and enjoy as a lunch, dinner, or barbecue side.
Notes
Serves 2-4 as a side. For a vegan version, use Julienne Bruno Burella burrata alternative.
