Steps:

The perfect summer dish, this chicken is even better served cold the next day.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup peach preserves or jam
1 large clove garlic, minced (1 teaspoon)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 chicken breasts (about 5 pounds), split
4 ripe peaches, cut in half and pitted

Steps:

  • Preheat grill to medium hot. In a medium mixing bowl, combine preserves, garlic, olive oil, soy sauce, dry mustard, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper, and mix well to combine.
  • Sprinkle chicken breasts with additional salt and pepper, and place, skin side down, on the grill. Cook the chicken about 10 minutes on each side before brushing the upturned side with glaze. Continue cooking chicken for another 10 to 12 minutes, turning it every 3 to 5 minutes and brushing each upturned side with glaze every time, until the chicken is cooked through. Move chicken to the oven or a cooler part of grill if it gets too dark before it is cooked through.
  • Place peach halves on the grill, cut side down, and grill 2 minutes. Turn, and brush the tops with glaze. Grill 3 to 4 minutes more, until the peaches are soft and the cavities fill with juices. Transfer the cooked chicken and peaches to a serving platter.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe peaches: Using ripe, juicy peaches will give your dish the best flavor and texture.
  • Grill the peaches first: Grilling the peaches slightly before adding them to the chicken will help to caramelize them and give them a smoky flavor.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what will give your chicken the most flavor, so make sure to use a flavorful combination of spices and herbs.
  • Cook the chicken over indirect heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out and will allow it to cook evenly.
  • Baste the chicken with the marinade: Basting the chicken with the marinade while it cooks will help to keep it moist and flavorful.
  • Serve the chicken with grilled peaches: Serving the chicken with grilled peaches is a great way to add a pop of sweetness and color to the dish.

Conclusion:

Barbecue peach chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. The chicken is marinated in a flavorful combination of spices and herbs, then grilled until cooked through. The grilled peaches add a pop of sweetness and color to the dish, and the barbecue sauce adds a smoky flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
