Ingredients
  • 1 Cut Up chicken
  • 2 tablespoon Margarine
  • 1 tablespoon Oil
  • 1 Sliced Onion
  • 1 Green Pepper, cut in strips
  • 1 Large Can peaches
  • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoon White wine venegar
  • 2 Peeled Sliced tomatoes
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
  2. 2
    Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces, skin-side down if applicable, and brown them on all sides.
  3. 3
    Once browned, cover the skillet and simmer the chicken for 10 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and place it into a baking dish or casserole.
  4. 4
    In the same skillet, add the margarine. Once melted, add the sliced onion and green pepper strips. Sauté until the vegetables are softened and slightly tender, about 5 minutes.
  5. 5
    Drain the canned peaches, reserving the syrup in a measuring cup.
  6. 6
    In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, soy sauce, white wine vinegar, and 1 cup of the reserved peach syrup until smooth.
  7. 7
    Pour the liquid mixture into the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Stir constantly and bring to a boil, cooking until the sauce thickens and becomes clear.
  8. 8
    Gently fold the drained peaches and sliced tomatoes into the thickened sauce in the skillet.
  9. 9
    Pour the vegetable and fruit sauce evenly over the chicken in the baking dish.
  10. 10
    Cover the casserole tightly with foil and bake for 40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
  11. 11
    Serve hot, optionally with rice mixed with additional peach pieces and green pepper strips for garnish.
