July 23, 2011 Grilled Peaches
Serves 2
A CookTale
Grilled fruit goes well with Chicken Salad or most any salad. For my taste, particularly Peaches when it has a slightly tart taste. I used an indoor grill, i find that there is much more control than with an outdoor grill. It seems that more and more often I’m turning to a grill pan, the results are actually similar unless you are using wet wood chips to achieve smokiness. And another huge advantage…no mosquitoes.
INGREDIENTS
2 Peaches halved and pitted (not overly ripe)
1 TB of White Sugar
1/2 Cup Balsamic Vinegar
1 tsp Fresh Black Pepper
METHOD
1. In a saucepan over medium heat, stir together the White Sugar, Balsamic Vinegar & Pepper. Simmer until liquid has reduced by one half. It should become slightly thicker & become a glaze. Remove from the heat, & set aside.
2. Preheat a grill pan to medium-high heat.
3. Lightly oil the grill. Brush the cut sides with the Balsamic Glaze. Place the Peaches on the grill, cut side down. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the flesh is caramelized.
4. Turn the Peaches over & cook for another 2 to 3 minutes.
5. Transfer the Peach halves to individual serving dishes.
