Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 ripe peaches, diced
  • 2 medium jalapeños, chopped
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Prepare Ingredients: Rinse and pat dry chicken breasts. Dice peaches and chop jalapeños. Measure honey, soy sauce, and lime juice.
  • Make the Glaze: In a saucepan, combine peaches, jalapeños, honey, soy sauce, and lime juice. Simmer for 10 minutes until peaches soften. Blend the mixture until smooth, then return to pan to thicken.
  • Cook Chicken: Season chicken with salt and pepper. Grill over medium-high heat for 6 minutes per side, brushing with glaze during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
  • Serve: Once chicken reaches 165°F internally, serve topped with extra glaze.

Notes

  • Adjust the jalapeño quantity based on your preferred spice level.
  • If fresh peaches are unavailable, use canned or frozen peaches (drained).
  • For extra flavor, try adding a touch of garlic or ginger to the glaze.
