Serve this dish warm or at room temperature, drizzled with olive oil and balsamic vinegar for added flavor. It pairs wonderfully with crusty bread for dipping, or as a side to grilled meats such as Mediterranean-Style Brisket or Grilled Chicken Salpicón Salad.

For a light meal, consider enjoying it with a side of Greek Salad with Garlic Croutons or Chickpea, Arugula, and Pita Bread Salad.

Tips and Notes

  • Tomatoes: Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes for the best results. Heirloom or beefsteak varieties work well for grilling.
  • Burrata: Use fresh burrata cheese for a creamy texture. If burrata is unavailable, fresh mozzarella is a good substitute.
  • Grilling: Cook the tomatoes over medium heat until slightly charred, usually about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. While the tomatoes may lose some texture, they can still be enjoyed cold or gently reheated.
