Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 large ripe peaches, halved and pitted
Olive oil, for drizzling
Coarse salt
6 tablespoons honey
8 ounces mascarpone cheese, room temperature

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill: If using a charcoal grill, make a fire in your grill. When the charcoals are completely covered in gray ash, hold your hand about 5 inches above the grill grid; count how many seconds you can comfortably leave it there. When you can hold it there for 2 to 3 seconds, you have medium-high heat and are ready to grill. If you are using a gas grill, heat the grill for 15 minutes with the lid closed. Before beginning to cook, reduce the temperature by turning the knobs to medium-high.
  • Drizzle peaches with olive oil and season with salt. Place peaches, cut side down, on the grill and cook until lightly charred, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Remove peaches from grill and divide among six dessert plates. Divide mascarpone evenly among plates and drizzle with honey. Serve immediately.
