For the Chicken:
- 4 chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
For the Jalapeno Peach Sauce:
- 2 jalapenos, diced
- 3 peaches, diced
- 1⁄4 cup honey
- 1⁄4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1⁄4 cup water
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
- In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the diced jalapenos and peaches. Cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, apple cider vinegar, water, and cornstarch until smooth. Pour the honey mixture over the jalapenos and peaches. Stir well and bring to a simmer.
- Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the top. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve the Jalapeno Peach Chicken hot, spooning the sauce over the chicken. Enjoy!
