Ingredients

– 2 ripe peaches, diced
– 2 jalapenos, finely chopped (seeds removed for less heat)

– 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
Creating Jalapeno Peach Chicken can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine olive oil, honey, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breasts and ensure they are well coated. Let marinate for at least 20 minutes.
2. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
3. Prepare the Jalapeno Peach Mixture: In a separate bowl, mix diced peaches and chopped jalapenos. Add a pinch of salt and stir to combine.
4. Grill the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the chicken is fully cooked and has nice grill marks.
5. Add the Peach Mixture: During the last few minutes of grilling, top each chicken breast with the jalapeno peach mixture. Close the grill lid to allow the peaches to warm and soften.
6. Check for Doneness: Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
7. Remove from Grill: Carefully remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.
8. Garnish: If desired, garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
