This was a great recipe! The peaches were cooked perfectly and the sauce was so flavorful. I served it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and it was the perfect summer dessert.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I think next time I'll use less sugar or maybe add some tart fruit like cranberries to balance out the sweetness.

I followed the recipe exactly but my peaches didn't come out as soft as I would have liked. Maybe I needed to cook them for a little longer?

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit with my friends and family. The combination of flavors is just amazing and the peaches give it a really unique twist.

This was an easy and delightful recipe to follow. I used fresh peaches from my local farmer's market, which gave the dish an extra burst of flavor. The combination of the sweet peaches, tangy lemon juice, and crunchy pecans was perfect.
