Ingredients
- 4 whole ripe peaches
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 6 leaves fresh mint leaves
- 1 pinch sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Step 2
Cut each peach in half and remove the pit. Brush the cut sides with olive oil to prevent sticking to the grill grates.
Step 3
In a small saucepan, combine honey and balsamic vinegar. Simmer over low heat until the mixture slightly thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
Step 4
Place the peach halves cut-side down on the preheated grill. Grill for about 3-4 minutes, or until you see grill marks and the peaches start to caramelize.
Step 5
Carefully flip the peach halves and grill for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until heated through and tender.
Step 6
Transfer the grilled peaches to a serving plate, cut-side up. Drizzle the honey-balsamic glaze over the peaches.
Step 7
Garnish with fresh mint leaves and a pinch of sea salt before serving.
Step 8
Serve immediately while warm, enjoying the naturally sweet and tangy flavors of the dish.
