Calories 74kcal
Ingredients
- 4 6 oz Peaches rinsed, halved & pitted
- 1 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil to brush on peaches
- 1/4 lb Fresh Mozzarella preferably at room temperature
- 2 Tbsp Sliced Almonds
- 8-10 Fresh Basil Leaves finely chopped
- 1 tsp Balsamic Glaze
Instructions
- Brush the surface of peach halves with EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL.
To grill the peaches:
- Preheat grill to medium heat. Clean and brush the grill surface.
- Carefully place PEACH halves face down on the grill surface.
- Grill the peaches 3-5 minutes until the peach becomes tender. If you want perfect grill marks, don't move them once they’re on the grill. Resist the temptation ;)
- Using tongs, carefully turn peaches over and allow to grill another 3-5 minutes. You want them tender and somewhat firm and don’t want them to fall apart during handling.
For the Caprese part:
- Place FRESH MOZZARELLA into the pitted area of the grill cut side.
- Continue grilling to allow mozzarella to become warm and melted (about 3 minutes).
- Using tongs, gently remove peach halves and transfer to a serving platter.
- Sprinkle chopped BASIL and SLICED ALMONDS over the surface, and drizzle with balsamic glaze; serve warm.
