Ingredients

  • 3 ripe but firm Ontario peaches or nectarines, divided
  • 1 shallot, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) each canola oil and cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt

Instructions

Chef's Tips

  • If using wooden/bamboo skewers be sure to soak them for at least 20 minutes in water to prevent flare ups.
  • For a milder version, remove the seeds from the hot pepper.
  • Cut fruit and turkey into similar size cubes for more even grilling.
  • When picking out fresh peaches, make sure they are firm to the touch but have a wonderful, fragrant peach aroma. They will be perfect for grilling.
