  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds boneless chicken breasts or thighs (equal-sized pieces)

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped

Zest of 1 lemon

Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

4 slices thick-cut bacon, chopped

3/4 cup dry white wine (Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc)

1/4 cup water

2 peaches, sliced

1 tablespoon honey

8 ounces fresh mozzarella, torn

Fresh basil, for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
  2. Rub chicken with olive oil, rosemary, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Lightly dredge in flour.
  3. Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Cook bacon until crisp; remove and set aside.
  4. Sear chicken in bacon fat until golden on both sides, about 5 minutes per side.
  5. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add white wine and water; simmer for 5 minutes until chicken is nearly cooked through.
  6. Add bacon back to skillet. Arrange peaches and mozzarella around chicken. Drizzle honey over peaches.
  7. Transfer skillet to oven and bake for 5 minutes. Broil 1 minute until cheese is melted and peaches are slightly charred.
  8. Top with fresh basil and serve with pan sauce.

Notes

  • Use chicken thighs for extra juiciness.
  • Nectarines, plums, or pears can replace peaches.
  • Add cream to the sauce for a richer texture.
  • Skip the bacon and use butter for a vegetarian variation (without chicken).
  • Don’t peel peaches—the skins soften and add flavor when baked.
