Ingredients

• 1 15 Ounces (oz) can peaches, drained
• 4 Cloves garlic, minced
• 1.5 Cups orange juice
• 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) distilled white vinegar
• 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) brown sugar
• 1.5 Teaspoons (tsp) nutmeg, ground
• 0.5 Teaspoon (tsp) red pepper flakes
• 2 Teaspoons (tsp) dried basil
• 1 Pinch salt, to taste
• 1 Pinch pepper, to taste
• 4 6 Ounces (oz) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, sliced
• 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) flour, sifted
• 3 Tablespoons (tbsp) butter, melted

Steps

1. In a saucepan over high heat, combine the peaches, garlic, orange juice, vinegar, brown sugar, nutmeg, red pepper flakes, and basil. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to meld the flavors.
2. While the sauce simmers, season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Lightly dust them with flour, shaking off any excess.
3. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until they are lightly browned on both sides, ensuring they remain pink in the center.
4. Taste the peach sauce and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Pour the sauce over the browned chicken in the skillet.
5. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover the skillet and let it simmer for an additional 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
6. Serve the spicy peach-infused chicken over broad, flat noodles or a bed of rice, garnished with fresh basil if desired. Enjoy the harmonious blend of sweet, spicy, and savory flavors.
