Instructions

Prep Work

  1. Combine all ingredients in the sauce section above and set aside. Measure out remaining ingredients before beginning.
  2. Note: Burrata cheese is best enjoyed at room temperature, so take it out of the fridge and let it sit out for 30 minutes while you prepare the dish.

Cook the Chicken

  1. Slice the chicken in half lengthwise to create 2-3 thinner slices. Cover with saran wrap and use the textured side of a meat mallet to pound it to ½-inch thick. Pat the chicken dry.
  2. Sprinkle each side of the chicken with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken in batches for 4 minutes per side, until a golden crust has developed. Set aside.

Make the Sauce

  1. Turn the heat off and add the white wine. Use a silicone spatula to “clean” the bottom and sides of the skillet.
  2. Set heat to medium and add the garlic. Let it bubble gently and reduce by half, about 4 minutes. Add the butter and let it melt.
  3. Stir in the sauce mixture from step 1. Bring to a boil and let it thicken. Once thickened, reduce heat to medium-low and add the peaches. Let them soften for 4 minutes.
  4. Add the chicken back and spoon the sauce on top. Simmer until heated through, about 2 minutes.
  5. Add the burrata cheese to serving plates along with the chicken and peaches and spoon the sauce on top. Sprinkle with almonds and serve!

Notes

  • Pro Tips
  • Storage
  • Nutritional information is an estimate and is per serving. There are 4 servings in this recipe.
  • Cheese: Burrata is the perfect way to round out the sweet and acidic flavors in this sauce. The creamy texture is also the perfect way to compliment the peaches. Fresh mozzarella is the closest substitution and ricotta works also in a pinch.
  • Peaches: Choose peaches that are ripe but not overly soft to ensure they are sweet but also maintain their shape in this dish.
  • Wine: Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, and Sauvignon Blanc are the best dry white wines for this recipe. Non-alcoholic wine or chicken broth may also be used.
  • Nuts: Honey glazed or honey roasted nuts are a must in this dish, they add a nice crunch and take the combination of flavors to the next level. Almonds and pecans are the best options, but walnuts or even peanuts will work in a pinch.
  • Serve this with: Rice, Roasted Potatoes, Grilled Potatoes, Greek Potatoes, Pasta Salad, Potato Salad, Corn Salad, Spinach Salad,  Greens and Beans, and more!
  • More Recipes with Fresh Fruit: Peach Cobbler, Apple Pork Chops, Blackberry Cobbler, and Pineapple Fried Rice.
  • Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. The chicken and sauce freeze well, however the cheese does not.
