Method

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Halve peaches, remove pits and slice fruit 1/2 inch thick. In a 9-by-13-inch pan, toss all ingredients except 1 tablespoon basil. Roast until meat is cooked through and peaches are softened, about 20 minutes. Garnish with remaining basil. Sauce will be thin, so serve with crusty bread for sopping or over rice.
