Honey Ginger Glazed Peaches

Honey Ginger Glazed Peaches

I am always looking for new ways to cook with old favorites. Peaches are a great example. When they are in season, I can’t get enough of them.

I have made peach ice cream, peach pie, peach pancakes, peach preserves, peach liqueur….. you get the idea. I wanted to enjoy peaches with our dinner the other night. I decided, rather than just slicing them up and adding them to a salad, I would do a little more to transform them.

So I glazed them, the way you might glaze carrots. So simple. Why had I never thought of it before? The peaches were soft, slightly sweet, and a perfect side dish for the broiled chicken. I want to try these with lamb, pork or maybe duck next time.

I kept it pretty simple- peaches, butter, honey, ginger, salt and a dash of sriracha. I could see adding other herbs and spices. Might have to do a little experimenting. For now, here is the recipe for glazed peaches. I did not have any leftovers, so a hit, for sure. I did not peel my peaches, but feel free to, if you like.

Honey Ginger Glazed Peaches

4 medium peaches, pitted and sliced thin

2 T. butter

4 T. honey

1/2 t. fresh grated ginger

pinch of salt

Hot sauce to taste

Place peach slices in a small skillet. Add butter and remaining ingredients. Cook over medium heat until peaches start to get tender. This will take about 5 minutes. Stir once in a while to prevent sticking. Be gentle so you don’t mash the peach slices. Reduce heat to low and continue cooking a few more minutes. Peaches should be soft and the sauce thickened. Adjust seasonings.
