Why This Recipe Is So Good

This dish combines juicy, tender chicken with a sweet and spicy glaze that brightens up the flavors. The fresh ginger adds a nice zing while the peach glaze brings a fruity touch, making it both refreshing and satisfying.

Cooking Secrets

- Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes to enhance the flavors.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high for even cooking and nice grill marks.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F for safety.

Step 1

Blend together the peach preserves, vinegar, horseradish, ginger, salt, and pepper in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat it in the microwave on high for about 30 to 60 seconds, stirring halfway through until the preserves have melted. Let the mixture cool to room temperature.

Step 2

While the glaze cools, rinse the chicken breasts and pat them dry with paper towels. Put the chicken in a resealable plastic bag and pour the cooled glaze over it. Seal the bag and pop it in the fridge to marinate for anywhere from 6 to 24 hours, turning the bag every so often to make sure the chicken soaks up all the flavor.

Step 3

When you’re ready to cook, heat up your outdoor grill to medium-high and give the grate a light oiling to prevent sticking. Place the chicken on the grill, but use indirect heat so it cooks gently without burning. Cover the grill and let the chicken cook until it’s nicely browned and cooked through, which should take about 30 minutes. Keep an eye on it and enjoy the delicious smell as it cooks!

Simple Serving Suggestions

Serve with a simple green salad or grilled vegetables to balance the sweetness of the glaze. Steamed rice or quinoa also pairs well for a complete meal. A light citrus vinaigrette on the side can add a fresh contrast.

Storing Leftovers

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or on the stovetop to keep the chicken moist and the glaze flavorful. Avoid microwaving directly to prevent drying out.
