Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the crock pot in a single layer.
Drain the canned peach slices, reserving 1/4 cup of the juice. Set the juice aside and layer the peach slices over the chicken.
In a small bowl, combine the reserved peach juice, diced onion, soy sauce, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, ground ginger, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to mix.
Pour the prepared sauce evenly over the chicken and peaches in the crock pot.
Cover and cook on low heat for 4-5 hours or until the chicken is tender and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).
Once the chicken has cooked, mix the cornstarch and water in a small bowl to create a slurry.
Remove the chicken and peaches from the crock pot and set aside, keeping them warm.
Stir the cornstarch slurry into the sauce in the crock pot and let it cook for an additional 10-15 minutes on high or until the sauce has thickened.
Return the chicken and peaches to the crock pot to coat with the sauce.
Serve the peach chicken over rice, quinoa, or mashed potatoes, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
