Me make good food, share recipe

Ok, so it's not really a recipe, it's more of a theory.

It's for a baked chicken and peach dish.
All you need are:
-chicken breasts
-fresh sliced peaches (or one large can of no sugar added sliced peaches, drained, if peaches are out of season)
-ground ginger
-ground cloves
-brown sugar
-splash of lemon juice

Preheat your oven to 350°F. In a lightly greased baking dish, layer the chicken breasts and peach slices. Sprinkle with brown sugar, ground ginger and cloves and pour about a tablespoon or two lemon juice over it all. Bake this for about 30 minutes, basting occasionally, until the juices run clear.

I thickened the sauce with a bit of cornstarch and water and served this with mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli.

This recipe works well if you add in a bit of ground cinammon or allspice also. I added some dried mint and it didn't hurt the flavor at all.

If you like a sweeter main dish, try this.

You may like it.
