Cooking Tips

• Make sure to marinate the chicken for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
• If you don't have bourbon, you can substitute it with whiskey or apple juice for a different flavor profile.
• To prevent sticking, oil the grill grates before placing the chicken and peaches on the grill.
• For extra caramelization, brush the chicken with the marinade during grilling.
• You can also serve this dish with a side of rice or a fresh salad for a complete meal.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover grilled chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat the chicken, place it in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through.
• The grilled peaches can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. They can be enjoyed cold or reheated on the grill or in a skillet.
