Ingredients
Chicken Marinade
- 1 cup (320 g) peach preserves
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
- 1 ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper

Chicken
- 1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2-3 medium peaches, pitted, thinly sliced
Instructions
Chicken Marinade
- In a medium bowl, stir together peach preserves, olive oil, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. (This makes about 1 1/2 cups).
- Reserve half of the mixture, and refrigerate. The remaining peach mixture will be used to marinate the chicken.
Chicken
- Pat chicken breasts dry and pound each to about ½-inch thickness.
- To a resealable plastic bag, add the chicken and sliced red onions. Pour the marinade into the bag, seal, and mix to coat.
- Place the marinating chicken in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, up to overnight.
- When ready, preheat the oven to 375°F.
- To a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat, add oil. Once hot, add the entire contents of the marinated chicken bag to the skillet. Sear the chicken for a few minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
- Pour the reserved peach marinade over the chicken breasts in the skillet. Arrange 4-5 sliced peaches on top of each chicken breast, and nestle the remaining peaches into the pan around the chicken.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven. Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
