Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the chicken thighs with salt on both sides and let sit for 10 minutes.
In a mixing bowl, combine peaches, honey, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic. Whisk until smooth to create the glaze.
Heat olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat and sear chicken thighs skin-side down for 5 minutes.
Flip the chicken and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Apply a layer of peach glaze on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Switch to broil and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to caramelize the glaze.
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving with optional garnishes.
