we loved this recipe! I was asked to make it again 3 nights later! The chicken was so moist and delicious. i didn't have fresh or frozen peaches so I used canned( syrup and all), and i also cut back on the sugar because of the syrup from the peaches. I didn't have walnuts so I used pecans. I cut the chicken into chunks before cooking and served it over rice. Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe -
I just made this. Tweeks: I used peach marmalade instead of fresh or frozen peaches. Little sugar and soy sauce . I wrapped the chicken breast with bacon stuff with cream cheese. Solar no complaints -
This recipe really intrigued me. I felt in would be great or terrible. It was more than great, it was fantastic plus.Very easy to make. I used a high quality balsamic and that paid off. You are really missing a treat if you do not give this a try. Thanks for this wonderful recipe. Merry Christmas 2012

fabulous! -
I tried this last night and it was delicious. I used a can of sliced peaches instead of fresh or frozen, and added the juice from the peaches to the sauce. It had a great flavor and the chicken was very moist. Thanks for sharing!
