Spicy Peach Sauce

In my last post, I was telling you all about Grilled Duck Breast...and a Spicy Peach Sauce. This sauce is quite versatile and will go very well with chicken, pork or even seafood...scallops or schrimp. Don't hesitate to experiment with these new flavors!

Spicy Peach Sauce

Makes about 3 cups



4 large peaches, ripe, peeled and sliced
2 Tbsp butter
1 Tbsp brown sugar
1/2 cup Tequila (Cuervo Gold)
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper, or more...
A pinch of salt to taste
10 to 15 fresh mint leaves, chopped


Melt the butter in a large saucepan, over medium heat. Add the peaches and let cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 to 15 minutes. When soft, but not mushy, add the tequila, the salt and the cayenne pepper. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, until the sauce thickens.
Add the fresh mint and serve warm with the grilled duck.
