Mediterrean Chicken with Grilled Fruit


Another simple grilled chicken recipe with a twist.  I grilled plums, nectarines, and peaches to go along with it.  This time a year the fruit was not the best and I had to use only half ripe fruit.  They were just OK.  I'll try it again when I have some good local fruit that actually is sweet to begin with.  I believe that will make a world of difference.

Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast
3 TBL olive oil
4 TBL balsamic vinegar
1 tsp crushed rosemary
season salt
2 plums
2 nectarines
2 peaches
1 large tomato

Directions:
1. Mix the oil, vinegar, and rosemary together. 

2. Slice fruit into eight wedges and place on skewers

3. Cut tomato into 1/2 inch slices

4. Grill the breasts on a pre-heated grill, brushing with the oil mixture.  Grill for 5-7 minutes per side or until done.  In the last 5-7 minutes place the fruit and tomatoes on the grill brushing with the same oil mixture.  Turn over after 3-4 minutes.
