Grill up savory chicken thighs and balsamic-glazed peaches for an unexpected match with a simple elegance. The balsamic vinegar from Primal Kitchen does double duty as a chicken marinade for a nice cohesion with the slightly caramelized peaches. Dollop organic whipped cream, coconut cream or sour cream onto the fruit, if desired, and serve family style on a platter with sprigs of fresh mint. Cheers to life alfresco!
