  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: Serves 4

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup chopped and peeled fresh peaches (or frozen)
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons adobo sauce from canned chipotle chiles in adobo
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, combine the peaches, ketchup, lemon juice, garlic, and adobo sauce. Season with salt and pepper, then bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until peaches are soft, about 10 minutes.
  2. Let the mixture cool slightly before blending until smooth. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  3. Marinate the chicken by mixing half of the peach BBQ sauce in a bowl with the chicken breasts. Let marinate at room temperature for 20 minutes or refrigerate for up to 8 hours.
  4. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side until browned and almost cooked through. Brush with reserved peach BBQ sauce during the last few minutes of cooking until glazed.
  5. Slice the chicken against the grain and serve with remaining peach BBQ sauce.
