Grilled Chicken with Peach BBQ Sauce
from Gwyneth Paltrow via Bon Appetit
Ingredients:
- 9-10 oz frozen sliced peaches, thawed and chopped (or 1 cup chopped peeled fresh peaches)
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 1/2 teaspoons adobo sauce (from canned chipotle chiles in adobo)
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 lbs)
Directions:
Add the peaches, ketchup, lemon juice, garlic and adobo sauce to a small saucepan. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low and simmer until the peaches are soft, about 10 minutes. Turn off the heat and let cool. Transfer to a blender or food processor and process until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Transfer half of the sauce to a resealable plastic bag. Add the chicken, seal the bag then use your hands (on the outside of the bag) to coat the chicken with the sauce. Marinate at room temperature for 20 minutes, or in the fridge for up to 8 hours. Cover and refrigerate the remaining half of the sauce.
Preheat grill to medium-high. Oil the grill racks thoroughly to keep the chicken from sticking. When hot, grill the chicken until charred in places and almost cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Brush all sides of the chicken with some of the remaining sauce then continue to grill until cooked through (chicken will register 160-165 F on an instant read thermometer), about 1-2 minutes more per side. Let rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve with remaining sauce.
