Notes

Make sure to properly season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper to enhance the flavor.

Adjust the amount of jalapenos based on your spice preference. For a milder dish, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapenos.

Choose ripe and sweet peaches for the best flavor in the dish.

You can substitute the chicken breasts with chicken thighs if preferred.

For a thicker sauce, cook the honey mixture for a few more minutes until it reaches the desired consistency.

Serve the dish with rice, quinoa, or a side of vegetables to complete the meal.
