Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C). Slice the artichokes and zucchinis lengthwise, then brush them with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the vegetables for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until they're beautifully charred and tender, then remove them from the heat and set aside.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add your choice of short pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente, generally 8-10 minutes. Drain the pasta in a colander, then rinse briefly with cold water to stop cooking. Transfer the pasta to a large mixing bowl and let it cool slightly.
- While your pasta is cooking, char the Meyer lemons on the grill for about 3-4 minutes until they have nice grill marks. Remove the lemons, juice them into a bowl, and combine the juice with olive oil and chopped fresh herbs. Whisk the mixture well to emulsify, adding salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour the charred Meyer lemon vinaigrette over the slightly cooled pasta in the mixing bowl. Use a large spoon to gently toss the pasta until it's evenly coated with the dressing. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper as needed.
- Once the pasta is well-dressed, carefully fold in the grilled artichokes and zucchinis.
- Slice the burrata cheese into portions and place it gently on top of the pasta salad. Sprinkle crispy prosciutto and chopped pistachios over the burrata.
- Serve immediately while warm or let it chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes for a refreshing cold salad.

Notes
This salad stores well in the fridge for up to 3 days and flavors get better over time. Serve chilled or reheat gently if desired.
