Ingredients

The following ingredients have 5 Servings
  • 2 cups apple juice
  • 6 firm, ripe stone fruit, such as peaches, nectarines or plums, halved
  • 6 large fresh sausages, such as Italian-style
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup

Instruction

  • Prepare a grill for medium-heat cooking, oiling the grill grates as needed.
  • Place apple juice in a medium saucepan with fruit. Add just enough cold water to cover fruit. Place over high heat and bring just to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer until fruit just becomes tender, 1 to 3 minutes depending on the ripeness of the fruit.
  • Remove fruit with a slotted spoon and transfer to a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Place sausages in the fruit-poaching liquid. Return to high heat and bring to a boil.
  • Lower heat and simmer until barely cooked through, about 7 to 8 minutes. Remove sausages with a slotted spoon and place on the tray with the fruit.
  • Grill sausages until browned and cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Set on a serving platter to rest, lightly tented with foil.
  • Brush fruit with maple syrup and grill until soft and browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Cut fruit into pieces and serve with sausages.
