INGREDIENT TIP
The grilled chicken recipe calls for the sauce from a can of chipotles but not the chiles, so here are some ways to use them. Stir minced chipotles into room-temperature butter and freeze; the butter makes a great quick sauce for grilled fish or steak. Add the chiles to mayonnaise for a spicy sandwich spread. Toss a few minced chipotles into melted butter for corn on the cob, or add them to cornbread batter.

Preparation:


Coat grill rack with nonstick spray. Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Stir preserves, next 3 ingredients, 2 teaspoons oil, and chopped cilantro in medium bowl; season dressing with salt and pepper. Transfer 1/4 cup dressing to small bowl.

Brush peaches, then chicken with oil and dressing from small bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill chicken until cooked through, about 7 minutes per side. Grill peaches until slightly charred, about 2 minutes per side.

Place 1 chicken breast on each of 4 plates. Surround with peaches. Drizzle dressing from medium bowl over chicken and peaches. Garnish with cilantro sprigs.
