Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 pieces ripe peaches
- 1.5 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Brush the chicken breasts with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Slice the peaches in half, remove the pits, and dice them into small chunks.
In a small saucepan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the saucepan and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the diced peaches, honey, apple cider vinegar, fresh thyme leaves, and water. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Let the peach sauce cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peaches soften and the sauce thickens slightly. Remove from heat and set aside.
Place the chicken breasts on the preheated grill. Cook for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken is fully cooked.
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Serve the grilled chicken topped with the warm peach sauce. Garnish with extra thyme leaves if desired, and enjoy!
