Juicy, ripe peaches in peak season are key for this recipe. If your peaches are firm, let them stand on the kitchen counter for a few days until they're soft to the touch and have an enticing aroma. While the chicken and vegetables grill, prepare the chipotle-peach sauce. Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken thighs (about 8 thighs) |
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided |
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
olive oil-flavored cooking spray |
2 medium peaches, peeled, pitted, and quartered |
2 tablespoons honey |
1 chipotle chile in adobo sauce |
Directions:
1. Prepare grill.
2. Sprinkle chicken with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; coat with cooking spray. Place chicken on a grill rack coated with cooking spray. Grill 12 minutes or until done, turning chicken once.
3. While chicken cooks, puree peaches, honey, chile, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor. Reserve 3/4 cup chipotle-peach sauce to serve with chicken; brush remaining 1/2 cup sauce over chicken during last 2 minutes of cooking.
4. Serve with: Grilled Corn and Red Pepper Salad
