Creating Jalapeno Peach Chicken involves several simple steps that ensure a delicious final product. Here’s how to do it:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Rinse and pat dry the chicken breasts. Season with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.
2. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
3. Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and sear for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
4. Sauté the Aromatics: In the same pan, add minced garlic and chopped jalapenos. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
5. Add Peaches: Toss in the diced peaches and continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
6. Combine Ingredients: Return the chicken to the skillet and pour lime juice over the top. Stir gently to combine and heat through.
7. Garnish: Remove from heat and sprinkle fresh cilantro on top.
8. Serve: Plate the chicken with the jalapeno peach mixture drizzled over the top.
