    Sweet peaches, basil and shallots are a great flavor combination in this light, savory-sweet chicken dish.,Once in a while I like to take a break from testing new recipes and make something from one of my many cookbooks. When I look through a cookbook, I usually like to try something I would never have thought of making which is what inspired me to try this dish from Virginia Willis Cookbook, Lighten Up Yall; Classic Southern Recipes Made Healthy and Wholesome. Its also peach season so now is the time to eat enjoy the sweetest, juiciest peaches.,The author shares a really great tip for easily peeling the peaches: Bring a small pot of water to a boil and have an ice bath ready in the sink. Using a pairing knife cut an X in the blossom end of the peach. Gently place the peach in the water for 15 to 30 seconds, then transfer to the ice bath with a slotted spoon. The X will open slightly and the skin can be removed by gently pulling with a pairing knife.
