Steps:
- Heat a medium skillet with the butter over medium heat. Add the peaches and the juice of 1/2 lemon, and cook until tender and lightly golden, 10 minutes. Turn off the heat.
- While the peaches cook, heat 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, a turn of the pan, in a large skillet over medium-high to high heat. Cut the chicken breasts in half across the center of each breast to make 4 equal portions. Add the chicken breasts and thighs to the pan and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 12 minutes, then remove to a plate and cover with foil.
- Drizzle the pan with the remaining extra-virgin olive oil, half a turn of the pan. Add the chopped shallot, and the ginger, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the stock, the preserves, hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce and season with black pepper, to taste. Cook over medium heat for a couple of minutes to thicken. Arrange the chicken and peaches on a platter and douse with peach sauce. Portions are 1 piece of light meat and 1 thigh per person.

CURRIED CHICKEN WITH PEACHES
I found this recipe online from the Snowvillage Inn in Snowville, NH. I haven't tried it yet, so prep time is estimated. I also think I will cut down on the curry powder, as 1 1/2 Tbsp seems like a lot.

Tips:
- Use ripe peaches: The riper the peaches, the sweeter and more flavorful the curry will be.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breast cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
- Add a little spice: If you like spicy food, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the curry.
- Serve with rice or naan: Curry is traditionally served with rice or naan. Rice is a good choice if you want a more substantial meal, while naan is a good choice if you want something lighter.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro: Fresh cilantro adds a bright, fresh flavor to the curry.
Conclusion:
This curried chicken and peaches recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, the peaches are sweet and flavorful, and the curry sauce is rich and creamy. Serve this curry with rice or naan and a side of fresh cilantro for a complete meal.
