For the Whiskey Reduction: Add the whiskey, orange juice, sherry, madeira, honey and black pepper to the pan and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until it is thick and syrupy, about an hour. Reserve.

For the Peaches: Heat a cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Add olive oil. Place the peaches, onion slices, and sliced scallions, cut side down in the skillet. Griddle them until the peaches and onions caramelize and the scallions have just begun to soften, turning the onions and scallions as needed, about 20 minutes. Reserve and warm up when ready to serve.
