Cooking Steps
- Peel, then cut shallot into 1/8-inch pieces.
- Thinly slice chives.
- Cut four sections off of peach, avoiding the pit. Cut each section into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Trim and discard bottom 1-inch from asparagus. Transfer to a plate. Drizzle 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil over top. Season with 1 tsp (2 tsp) Zesty Garlic Blend, salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Halve ciabatta.
- Combine maple syrup and whole grain mustard in a small bowl.
- Add shallots, peaches, vinegar, half the maple-mustard mixture and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) water to a small pot. Bring to a simmer over high.
- Once simmering, reduce to medium-low. Cook, stirring often, until peaches soften slightly and liquid has absorbed, 2-4 min.
- Remove from heat. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in half the chives.
- Melt 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter in a small microwavable bowl, or in a small pan over low heat. Add remaining chives and 1 tsp (2 tsp) Zesty Garlic Blend. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels.
- On a clean cutting board, carefully slice into the centre of each chicken breast, parallel to cutting board, leaving 1/2-inch intact on the other end.
- Open up chicken like a book. Season both sides with remaining Zesty Garlic Blend, salt and pepper.
- Top one side of each chicken breast with goat cheese, pressing down lightly with fingers to adhere. Fold other side over filling to close.
- Wrap 2 bacon strips around each piece of chicken, ensuring cut side of chicken is wrapped firmly. (TIP: Overlapping strips by 1 inch helps keep bacon on chicken!)
- Add chicken to the grill. Close lid and grill, flipping once, until chicken is cooked through, 6-8 min per side.
- Once chicken is flipped, add asparagus on the other side of the grill. Grill, flipping once, until tender-crisp, 5-7 min.
- When chicken and asparagus are almost done, add ciabatta to grill, cut-sides down. Grill, flipping once, until toasted and lightly charred, 2-4 min.
- Brush ciabatta with garlic-chive butter.
- Thinly slice chicken, if desired.
- Divide garlic bread, chicken and asparagus between plates.
- Drizzle remaining maple-mustard over chicken.
- Spoon peach relish over chicken.
