Recipe courtesy EatingWell.com
Grilling luscious seasonal fruit is the perfect way to end
an outdoor celebration. Here, peaches soften and caramelize
over a moderate fire before melding with a fruity red-wine
sauce and toasted slices of (store-bought) angel food cake.
Combine wine and orange juice in a small heavy saucepan.
Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until reduced to
1/2 cup, 15 to 20 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium-low, stir in Triple Sec (or other
orange liqueur), brandy and 1 tablespoon sugar. Simmer
until the sugar dissolves and flavors combine, about 5
minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in lemon juice.
Taste and stir in remaining sugar if needed for a pleasantly
sweet but not cloying sauce.
Preheat grill to medium. Oil the grill rack (see Tip, below).
Brush peaches lightly with 2 tablespoons of the wine sauce,
reserving the rest. Transfer the peaches and cake slices to
the grill. Grill the cake over indirect heat or the coolest
part of the grill until lightly toasted, about 1 minute per
side. Grill the peaches over direct heat until softened and
browned in spots, 3 to 5 minutes per side. In the last min
of grilling, brush the peaches with 2 tablespoons more of
the wine sauce.
Arrange 1 cake slice and 2 peach halves on each dessert plate
and drizzle with the remaining sauce.
Serve hot or at room temperature.
To oil the grill rack: Oil a folded paper towel, hold it with
tongs and rub it over the rack. (Don’t use cooking spray on a
hot grill.)
