Simmer chicken in sweet peach sauce with peppers, peaches, and tomatoes for a delicious meal.
Ingredients:
  • salt and black pepper to taste
  • 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3 pounds bone-in chicken pieces
  • 0.25 cup corn oil
  • 1.5 cups water
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, cut into strips
  • 1 (15 ounce) can peach halves, liquid reserved
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 4 tomatoes, chopped
Instructions:
  • In a plastic bag, mix together flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Add chicken pieces and shake to coat. Heat corn oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Remove excess flour from chicken and place in hot oil. Brown on all sides for about 15 minutes, turning occasionally. Add water, cover, and simmer on medium-low heat for 30 minutes.
  • After 30 minutes, add the onion and green bell pepper. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the onion is tender, about 10 minutes. Reserve 2 tablespoons of peach juice in a small bowl. Pour the rest of the peach juice, soy sauce, and vinegar into the pot. Bring to a boil. Mix cornstarch in the reserved peach juice and add to the boiling sauce. Cook until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute. Add peach halves and chopped tomatoes. Cook until peaches are hot and tomatoes are starting to break down, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper before serving.
