Ingredients

  • One 15 oz., can light sliced peaches (in pear juice), lightly drained
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 tablespoon honey
  • 1 1/2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breast halves or chicken tenders
  • kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

  1. Place peaches in a food processor and process to a smooth puree. Add the oil and honey and process briefly to blend; transfer to a large resealable plastic bag. Add the chicken pieces and close, squeezing out the air. Chill for 15 minutes. (or do it the day before.)

  2. Prepare the grill (medium), heat a grill pan over medium heat, or preheat the broiler. Remove the chicken pieces from the bag and place on a plate. Season lightly with salt and pepper and transfer to the grill. Cover and cook until charred underneath, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook until charred and firm when poked with a finger, 4 to 5 minutes more.
