Oriental style chicken

This oriental style chicken is a delicious sweet-savory dish perfect for family dinners or special occasions. Tender chicken breasts are soaked for 24 hours in a rich marinade made from simmered peach chunks, peach jam, vinegar, soy sauce, fish sauce, spring onions, and sliced white onions. The long marination allows the chicken to absorb all the fruity, tangy flavors. Once baked for 45 minutes, the chicken turns soft, juicy, and beautifully glazed. A crowd-pleasing recipe that pairs perfectly with rice, salads, or roasted vegetables.
