Grilled Peaches With Lemon Thyme Mascarpone And Pistachios
- Pistachios
- 1/4 cup Pistachios, shelled and most of the papery skin removed
- 3 tablespoons butter
- zest of 1/2 lemon
- 1 teaspoon lemon thyme or regular thyme
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper
- Peaches and Mascarpone
- 1/4 cup Mascarpone
- zest of 1/2 lemon
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar + pinches
- 1 tablespoon lemon thyme or regular thyme
- 1 pinch salt
- 4 peaches, just ripe, cut in half and pit removed
- Make the nuts: Melt the butter over low heat in a small skillet until foaming. Add the nuts and lemon zest and let cook over low heat for 4 minutes. Add the thyme and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove the nuts to a small bowl using a slotted spoon. Reserve the butter in the pan. Mix the nuts with the brown sugar, salt, and cayenne and set aside to cool. Once cool, give a rough chop. You want large chunks, not a fine chop.
- Mix the Mascarpone with the lemon zest, lemon juice, brown sugar, thyme and salt. Set aside
- Toss or brush the peaches with the leftover butter in the pan. Sprinkle the cut side of each peach with a pinch of brown sugar.
- Heat a grill over medium high heat.
- Grill the peaches cut side down for 4 minutes, with the lid down.
- Plate peaches, 1 whole peach per person, and top each half with 1/2 TB mascarpone and a sprinkle of nuts.
