Pork and Grilled Peaches

I've seen a few variations of this recipe.  This is my version which when served to my family members, got great reviews. 

Pork and Grilled Peaches
Serves 3-4

Ingredients:
  • 1lb pork sirloin, cut into 4 equal pieces
  • 4 peaches, cut in half and pit removed
  • olive oil
  • 4 tbsp pine nuts
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp crumbled blue cheese
  • 2 shallots, thinly sliced

Instructions:
  1. Heat either the BBQ or a grill pan on the stove top to high heat
  2. Grill the pork on all sides until cooked through,  about 8 -10 minutes depending on thickness
  3. While pork is grilling spray or rub the peaches all over with olive oil
  4. In a dry pan over high heat, toast the pine nuts
  5. Toss the pine nuts in a bowl with the balsamic, blue cheese and shallots.
  6. When the pork is done, remove from the heat and let rest
  7. Add the peaches to the grill or pan and grill on all sides
  8. Toss the peaches with the pine nut/balsamic mix
  9. Serve the pork with the peach/pine nut/balsamic mixture, dividing it equally between the 4 pieces of pork.

Enjoy! We sure did!!
