ROASTED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH PEACHES, BASIL AND GINGER
A ripe, succulent peach is one of nature's greatest gifts. But a hard peach? It, too, is a gift, especially in this simple recipe from Melissa Clark. A roast in a 400-degree oven cooks the peaches alongside boneless, skinless chicken thighs, drawing out their flavor and softening them as they meld with those flavorful drippings. Speaking of those pan juices, don't cast them aside: Sop them up instead with crusty bread. You won't regret it.

Tips:
- Choose ripe peaches: Ripe peaches will be more flavorful and juicy, making them ideal for this dish. Look for peaches that are slightly soft to the touch and have a sweet aroma.
- Use fresh basil: Fresh basil adds a bright, herbaceous flavor to the dish. If you don't have fresh basil, you can substitute dried basil, but use about half the amount.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing the chicken, make sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly and will also make it more likely to stick to the pan.
- Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Deglaze the pan with white wine: Deglazing the pan with white wine will help to loosen any browned bits from the bottom of the pan and will also add a delicious flavor to the sauce.
- Simmer the sauce until it is thickened: Simmer the sauce for at least 15 minutes, or until it has thickened slightly. This will allow the flavors to meld together and will also help to reduce the sauce.
- Serve the chicken with the sauce and peaches: Serve the chicken with the sauce and peaches spooned over top. Garnish with fresh basil and serve with your favorite sides.
Conclusion:
Chicken with peaches and basil is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal.
