Preheat the grill to medium high. Carefully oil the grill rack.
Cut the peaches in half and remove the pits, leaving the skin on. The pits may pop out easily, or if they are cling peaches, you may have to carve out the pit with a small sharp knife. Brush the cut sides of the peaches with the olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper. Grill the peaches, cut sides down for 5 minutes, with the cover on, until they are slightly softened, and have pretty grill marks. Flip them over and grill, covered, for another 3 minutes. Remove to a serving platter.
Serve the peaches warm or at room temperature.
Notes
Serve the peaches warm or at room temperature. Some vanilla ice cream is amazing as a dessert partner. A small drizzle of good balsamic vinegar or a balsamic glaze is a perfect addition as well.You can also serve these with soft cheeses and grilled crusty bread for an unusual and memorable appetizer with drinks.
