8 to 10 asparagus spears

1 large red bell pepper, quartered and seeded

1/4 cup olive oil

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

4 thick slices sourdough bread

1 cup pesto

4 balls burrata

Fresh basil leaves, for serving

Directions

Heat a grill pan over medium heat.
Add the asparagus and red bell peppers to a bowl. Toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Add the asparagus and bell peppers to one half of the grill. Grill the vegetables, turning as needed, until nicely charred, 4 to 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, brush the sourdough slices with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Add the bread to the other half of the grill. Grill until nicely marked and toasted, about 3 minutes.
Remove the vegetables to a cutting board and place the grilled bread on plates. Slice the peppers into strips and halve the asparagus.
Divide and spread the pesto over the grilled bread. Place one burrata on each slice of bread. Sprinkle a pinch of pepper over the burrata. Fill the empty space around the burrata with the asparagus and peppers. Garnish with the fresh basil leaves.
