Ginger Chicken with Peaches and Onion
The frozen peaches go straight into the oven without thawing; cooked with onions, ginger, and chicken, they turn into a flavorful compote.

06/06/2014 "Unthawed"? Wouldn't you think the Martha Stewart people would have a handle on basic vocabulary?

04/24/2012 agreed, this recipe is good. i used vegetarian nuggets instead of chicken and added two cloves of garlic plus extra of all the flavors. i didn't make rice but it worked since there wasn't much juice.

02/18/2011 Not your average boring chicken recipe. Easy and full of flavor. The chicken is juicy. The peaches and onions and sauce are delicious over the rice. Great leftovers. Did I mention quick and easy to make with familiar ingredients but looks and tastes special.

11/02/2008 I made this dish for my best friend (she loves peaches) and it was a hit! Simple yet elegant. Great for any occasion.

09/09/2008 danadolittle: basically it's to use all the ingredients besides the peaches themselves as a marinade..

09/08/2008 this recipe was fantastic! I used everyone's suggestions to marinate before and I added 2 T of brown sugar at the end b/c I felt it had a lot of "kick" and needed a little sweetness too. I also added 2 cloves of crushed garlec. I used legs (nobody here likes breasts besides cutlets) and everyone loved it.

09/07/2008 my family liked this, with the exception of the couple that didn't like onions. I used fresh peaches and just threw them in the freezer. that worked. I'd like to say make sure to cut the peaches kind of thick or they'll get really limp and soggy. I used boneless skinless chicken and that works just fine.

08/17/2008 This recipe was delicious and very quickly assembled! I read the previous comments so I decided to double the "sauce" and decided to let it sit in the fridge to let all the flavors marry (I did not put in any of the peaches and only half of the onions when I let it marinate) My finicky husband loved this meal. I served it with soba noodles (I added soy sauce to the water they cooked in) and some steamed broccolini. He has already asked when I'm going to make this meal again!!

03/06/2008 After reading the previous reviews, I decided to marinate the meat in the sauce for the afternoon. I then made another batch of the sauce to use on the peaches and onions as it calls for in the recipe. The chicken was flavored perfectly and cooked perfectly! Definitely recommend this dish. It was easy and my 2 year old even liked it!

02/21/2008 I have found that if I use thin chicken tenderloins rather than the bone-in, skin-on chicken and then marinate the chicken and onions in the ginger/soy mixture for approx. 15 minutes in a freezer bag, the chicken soaks in the flavor and is delicious! I add the peaches just prior to cooking and give it all a good toss - then place them on the pan and cook.

01/23/2008 Well, if you add more ginger and pepper flakes, or marinate the chicken in the ginger- soy mixture, the chicken has a lot of flavor. I thought it was great, and so did my friends!

01/15/2008 This was okay. certainly easy but I had hoped for even more flavor for the chicken, which still tasted bland.
