Grilled Shrimp Peaches Recipes

GRILLED SHRIMP WITH PEACH COCKTAIL SAUCE

Steps:

• In a small sauce pan, combine the peaches and white wine. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook until the peaches are soft, about 10 minutes. Uncover and cook an additional 10 minutes to reduce slightly. Turn off the heat and stir in the honey, horseradish and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Using an immersion blender (or back of a fork) puree or mash the fruit slightly to create a sauce. Cool to room temperature or chill completely for later use (see Cook's Note).
• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Toss the shrimp with the olive oil and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Place on the hot grill and grill until pink and opaque all the way through, about 3 minutes per side. Finish with a squeeze of lemon juice. Remove to a tray and serve alongside peach cocktail sauce.

GRILLED SHRIMP WITH WILTED SPINACH AND PEACHES

Steps:

• Build a fire in your grill; when the coals are covered with gray ash and the temperature is medium-hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 3 to 4 seconds) you are ready to cook. (For a gas grill, turn all burners to high, lower cover and heat for 15 minutes, then turn burners to medium-high.)
• Meanwhile, put the peppercorns, coriander seeds, mustard seeds and cardamom pods in a small sauté pan and toast over medium heat, shaking frequently to avoid burning, until they begin to darken slightly and you can smell them, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, allow to cool slightly, then grind fine in a spice mill or mortar.
• Sprinkle shrimp generously with salt and pepper, then rub all over with the spice mixture, pressing gently to be sure it adheres. Set shrimp aside.
• Heat the olive oil in a small sauté pan over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add the ginger and cook, stirring frequently, 1 minute. Add the vinegar, orange juice, curry powder and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes.
• Put the peaches and spinach in a medium bowl. Pour hot dressing over them, wilting the spinach.
• Place the shrimp on the grill and cook until just opaque throughout, 3 to 4 minutes a side. (To check for doneness, cut into one shrimp and peek inside.) Divide the spinach-peach mixture among four plates and top each with 1/4 of the shrimp.

GRILLED PEACHES

Steps:

• In a saucepan over medium heat, stir together the white sugar, balsamic vinegar, and pepper. Simmer until liquid has reduced by one half. It should become slightly thicker. Remove from heat, and set aside.
• Preheat grill for medium-high heat.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Place peaches on the prepared grill, cut side down. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the flesh is caramelized. Turn peaches over. Brush the top sides with the balsamic glaze, and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes.
• Transfer the peach halves to individual serving dishes, and drizzle with remaining glaze. Sprinkle with crumbled blue cheese.
