Grilled Nectarines With Honey-Balsamic Glaze Recipe - Cooking Index
When using an outdoor grill, add a handful of fresh charcoal to the embers after serving the main course; when it's time to cook the nectarines, the fire should be at the right temperature. Remember to brush the grill clean before adding the fruit. Sour cream is a good substitute for the crème fraîche.
Type: Fruit1/2 cup | 118ml | Honey - plus |
2 tablespoons | 30ml | Honey |
1/4 cup | 59ml | Balsamic vinegar |
1/2 teaspoon | 2.5ml | Vanilla extract |
1 | Container crème fraîche - (8 oz) | |
6 | Firm but ripe nectarines - halved, pitted |
Whisk 1/2 cup honey, vinegar, and vanilla in small bowl. Whisk crème fraîche and remaining 2 tablespoons honey in medium bowl to blend. (Glaze and crème fraîche mixture can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately. Refrigerate crème fraîche mixture. Rewhisk both before using.)
Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush nectarines generously with half of glaze. Grill until heated through, turning occasionally, about 4 minutes.
Arrange 2 nectarine halves, cut-side up, on each plate. Drizzle with remaining glaze. Spoon some crème fraîche mixture into center of each nectarine half and serve.
