Grilled Peaches With Chilli Recipes

SIMPLEST GRILLED PEACHES

Steps:

• Heat a gas grill to medium. If you are cooking on a charcoal grill, wait until the fire has died down to medium to low heat.
• Cut the peaches along their seams, all the way around, and twist their halves off their pits. Brush the cut sides of the peaches with olive oil and grill, cut side down, until the fruit has developed grill marks and started to soften, about 4 to 5 minutes.
• Brush the tops with oil, turn over and move to the side of the grill to continue cooking over indirect heat, another 4 to 5 minutes. You can add flavor by brushing them with maple syrup and bourbon, or molasses and butter. But if they are perfect peaches, they shouldn't need anything at all.

GRILLED PEACHES

Steps:

• Right before cooking, slice the peaches along the seam and pit them. Coat them in oil for cooking, being sure to give them a thick, even coating. I prefer to toss them in a gallon size Ziplock bag along with the oil and gently rub the oil into the peach. This reduces mess, which is critical when you might be in the backyard, far from access to a sink. Don't use extra virgin olive oil, as the smoke point is lower and may cause the peaches to taste burnt and smoky. Grill the peaches skin side up for 5-6 minutes. When they begin to sizzle and shine, turn them over onto their skin and cook for another 6-7 minutes, or until they soften and lose a little bit of their shape. Serve immediately, with or without a garnish of whipped cream or ice cream. If you don't have room to eat all the peaches you've grilled, they can be reheated in the microwave for about 30 seconds, and they still taste great the second time around.

SWEET GRILLED PEACHES

Steps:

• Preheat a grill for medium heat.
• Place peaches onto a large piece of aluminum foil. Use two if necessary to hold in all of the peaches without spillage. Drizzle the honey over the peaches, and sprinkle with cinnamon. Close up the foil, sealing tightly.
• Place the foil packet onto the preheated grill, and cook for 10 minutes, turning once halfway through. Carefully open the packet, and serve.

GRILLED PEACH, CHICKEN & FETA SALAD

Steps:

• Heat a griddle pan. Toss the chicken in ½ tbsp of the oil, and season. Cook for 3-4 mins on each side or until cooked through. Pop on a plate to rest.
• Next toss the peach slices in ½ tbsp oil and some ground black pepper. Grill on their cut sides for 1-2 mins each side.
• Mix the remaining olive oil, vinegar, honey and chilli. Toss with the salad leaves. Arrange the chicken and nectarine slices on top and scatter with the feta. Drizzle with the resting juices from the chicken and eat straight away.
