Instructions
- Cook the black rice according to package directions in vegetable broth or salted water; set aside.
- Halve the peaches, remove the pits, and brush with a mixture of olive oil, harissa paste, honey, lime juice, and kosher salt. Let them sit for about five minutes.
- Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill peaches cut-side down for approximately two minutes per side until lightly charred.
