Peach "Chicken"

We have just about finished off the last of the peaches.  So, this will be the last peach recipe for a while.  I was a little skeptical about this one.  It is an interesting mix of ingredients, but the end result is phenomenal.  You will need:

4 Quorn "Naked Chik'n Cutlets", grilled
4 peaches, skins and pits removed and quartered
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tbsp butter
1 tbsp olive oil
1-2" piece of gingers, peeled and minced (or grated)
1 shallot chopped (I substituted 1/2 of a medium sized mild white onion)
3/4 C vegetable broth
2/3 C peach preserves
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp hot sauce (more or less depending on preference)
Salt & pepper

Grill the chicken.  Melt the butter over medium heat in a sauce pan.  Add the peaches and lemon juice.  Cook until softened and golden , about 10 minutes.  Removed from heat.  Meanwhile, in a saute pan, warm the olive oil over medium-high heat.  Add the shallot and ginger.  Cook 2-3 minutes.  Add the peach preserves, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce.  Salt and pepper to taste.  Continue to cook for about 4-5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.  Place the chicken and peaches on a platter and pour the sauce over the top.
