- 3 Firm yet ripe large nectarines pitted and halved
- ¼ cup Sparkling white wine California sparkling, Prosecco, Champagne or other
- ¾ cup Mascarpone cheese chilled
- ¼ cup Whipping cream chilled
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 2 teaspoon Vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Fresh lemon zest orange zest is also delicious
- ¼ cup Pistachios, walnuts or dried cranberries chopped (or a combination)
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Brush the nectarines with the wine. Grill until golden, tender and you have achieved beautiful grill marks, about 2 to 3 minutes on each side, 6 minutes total. Remove from the grill and let cool slightly.
Add the mascarpone, whipping cream, sugar, lemon zest, and vanilla to a large mixing bowl and beat with a hand mixer until soft peaks appear.
Plate the grilled nectarines on a platter and top each with a dollop of whipped mascarpone and a sprinkling of chopped pistachios, walnuts or cranberries. Serve immediately.
Remaining mascarpone filling may be stored in the refrigerator for 5 days.
