CHICKEN AND PEACHES PICANTE


CHICKEN AND PEACHES PICANTE

1 can (15 oz.) DEL MONTE® Lite Sliced Yellow Cling Peaches
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1/2 cup diced red sweet pepper
1/2 cup thick and chunky salsa
1 Tbsp. frozen orange juice concentrate
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro or parsley


1. Drain peaches, reserving liquid; set aside. Season chicken with salt and pepper, if desired.
2. Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook 9 to 10 minutes, turning once, until no longer pink in center. Remove to platter.
3. Add red pepper to skillet; reduce heat and cook and stir 2 minutes until tender-crisp.
4. Add reserved peach liquid, salsa and orange juice concentrate. Bring to boil, scraping up browned bits from pan. Add peaches and cilantro; cook and stir 3 minutes until hot.
5. Spoon sauce and peaches over chicken and serve.



# Watching your carbs? Try new Del Monte Carb Clever Peaches in place of Lite Peaches. Also, use a bit of grated orange peel in place of orange juice concentrate. Serve with mashed cauliflower in place of rice.


# Try Del Monte Sliced Pears in place of peaches.
