How to Grill Peaches
- Cut peaches along the seam all the way around until you can twist the two halves off the pit.

Brush the cut sides with vegetable oil. For good measure, also brush your grill with oil.

For beautiful grill marks, do not move the peaches for 3-4 minutes.
- Turn the peaches to cook the other cut side.

What Can I Substitute for Chipotle in Adobo?
The first time you make any of my recipes, I suggest you do it just as I've laid out for you. These recipes have been tested and we know what works well.
Chipotle in Adobo comes in a can. The chipotle peppers are smoked and dried. Then they are mixed in a sweet and tangy red sauce that includes tomato, vinegar and seasonings. The flavor is smoky and a little spicy, but not overpowering.
But... if truly have to substitute Chipotle in Adobo, here's what you can do: mix a tablespoon of tomato paste with a tablespoon of cider vinegar. Mix in 1 teaspoon chipotle powder, ½ teaspoon of cumin, along with a pinch each of garlic powder and salt. Mix well to combine.

Ingredients
- 2 cups strawberries hulled and halved
- 2 cups fresh peaches halved and pitted
- ½ cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons strawberry preserves
- 2 tablespoons peach preserves
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 chipotle chili in adobo chopped
- 1 tablespoon garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon ground ginger grated
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Scant 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ⅓ cup onion minced
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to approximately 425-degrees F. Wrap a small tray with tinfoil and spray lightly with cooking spray. Add the prepared strawberries and cook over indirect heat on the grill until the strawberries begin to caramelize, about 3 minutes. You may want to stir and cook 1-2 minutes more.
- Spray the grill over direct heat. Brush the peaches with olive oil for good measure and place the peach halves on. Grill 3-4 minutes per side, then remove and let cool so they can be handled.
- Over medium high heat, add the olive oil to a small saucepan. Cook the onions until tender, about 4-5 minutes. Add the ketchup, maple syrup, strawberry and peach preserves, balsamic vinegar, chipotle in adobo, garlic, ginger, and Dijon mustard. Whisk to combine.
- Remove the skins from the peaches and roughly chop them. To the sauce pot, add the strawberries and peaches. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer 5-6 minutes.
- Use an immersion blender to puree the mixture. Use as a marinade or serve on the side for dipping.
