Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 ripe peaches, sliced
  • 2 jalapenos, sliced (seeds removed for less heat)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet.
  3. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  4. Sear the chicken in the skillet for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  5. Mix the sliced peaches and jalapenos with honey in a bowl until coated.
  6. Place the seared chicken into a baking dish and top it with the peach and jalapeno mixture.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
