Method

Chicken -

  1. Preheat oven to 190C/375F.
  2. In a bowl mix chilli powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Season all sides of the chicken.
  3. Heat a little olive oil in a skillet and sear the chicken. Remove and set aside.
  4. To the same pan, add 2 tablespoons butter. When melted, add the onions and cook for a few minutes to soften. Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  5. Add the peach jam, chicken stock, dijon mustard, paprika, soy sauce, thyme and chilli flakes. Heat for a few minutes until thickened.
  6. With a slotted spoon transfer the onions to a baking dish leaving a few in the sauce.
  7. Place the chicken on top of the onions and snuggle the peaches in between. Pour the sauce all over the chicken and peaches and season with freshly ground pepper.
  8. Bake in oven for 45 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and golden. Garnish with fresh thyme and serve.
  9. Enjoy!
