Ingredients

Boneless skinless chicken breasts

Fresh jalapenos

Ripe peaches

Honey

Apple cider vinegar

Cornstarch

Olive oil

Salt

Black pepper

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil.
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
In a medium bowl, combine chopped jalapenos, diced peaches, honey, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil. Mix well.
In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with a little water to create a slurry and then stir it into the peach mixture.
Pour the peach and jalapeno sauce over the chicken in the baking dish, ensuring the chicken is well coated.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is bubbly.
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.

Notes

For an extra kick, keep some jalapeno seeds in the mixture. Serve with rice or a light salad for a complete meal.
