Humble lentils get a serious upgrade with rich, buttery burrata. The ultra-creamy cheese scattered on top makes this flavorful side extra special — and wonderfully indulgent!
Step 1
Cook lentils per package directions, then drain. Meanwhile, heat oil in large skillet on medium. Add walnuts, garlic and thyme and cook, stirring occasionally, until nuts are fragrant and golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes.
Step 2
Add shallot and cook, stirring constantly, 1 min. Remove from heat and discard garlic and thyme. Whisk in vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Fold in lentils, then arugula and basil. Transfer to platter and top with burrata.
