#food #chicken #peaches

• 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
• 4 (6-oz.) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• kosher salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 12 oz. frozen peaches (no need to defrost)
• 1 tbsp. packed light brown sugar
• 1 tsp. fresh thyme leaves
• 1 tsp. freshly grated ginger
• 3/4 c. dry white wine
• 1 c. couscous
• Fresh chopped basil or parsley, for serving

1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with 1⁄2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook on one side until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes.
2. Flip, cook for 1 minute, then scatter the peaches, sugar, thyme, and ginger over and around the chicken. Add the white wine, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the chicken is cooked through and the peaches are warm and starting to break down at the edges, 6 to 7 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, cook the couscous according to package directions. Serve the chicken, peaches and sauce over the couscous and sprinkle with basil or parsley, if desired.
