Equipment

  • skillet
  • Knife
  • spatula
  • Medium Bowl

Ingredients
  

Peach and Jalapeno Sauce

  • 2 large yellow peaches, sliced
  • 2 Jalapeños, sliced
  • ½ cup peach or apricot preserves
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Chicken

  • 2 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
 

Peaches and Jalapeños Prep

  • Cut up peaches into thin slices.
  • Cut up jalapeños into circles. Add both to a medium size bowl and mix together with the peach sauce ingredients.

Chicken Prep

  • Remove chicken from packaging and make sure they are dry. I used paper towels.
  • Season chicken with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
  • Heat up the large skillet (12 inches in diameter) on medium high. Once hot, add olive oil and seasoned chicken.
  • Brown chicken on one side for 5 minutes without disturbing. Next, flip and cook for 4 more minutes on the other side (set a timer for that).
  • Do not remove the chicken. Add peach and jalapeño sauce to the same skillet and cook for 3 more minutes.
  • Now it's time to add peach and jalapeño sauce to the skillet and mix it into the chicken for 2 minutes until thoroughly heated.
  • Serve with chopped parsley right away.

Notes

Perfect easy family meal with a balance of flavors.
