grill with cooking spray). Place chicken onto hot grill
and brush with balsamic vinegar glaze. Cover grill with
lid, open any vents, and cook 20 to 30 minutes or until
a meat thermometer registers an internal temperature or

knife); turning and basting several times. |

Just before chicken
is fully cooked, place the peaches on the grill (cut
side down). Brush the top side of the peaches. Grill
until they are lightly browned, approximately 2 minutes.
Turn them over, brush the cut side with the balsamic
glaze and continue to cook for another 2 minutes. |
