For a richer flavor, use chicken broth instead of water to cook the rice. Fresh peaches can be substituted for canned, but you may need to add a touch of honey or maple syrup to achieve the desired sweetness in the glaze. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a hint of spice. Ensure the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for food safety.

May 28, 2025I found the peach syrup a bit too sweet for my taste, so I added a squeeze of lemon juice to balance it out.
