Directions
Drain peaches, reserving 1/2 cup syrup. If using sliced peaches, chop slices into thirds. Heat a large 10 to 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add reserved peach syrup, tomatoes and BBQ sauce; stir to combine. Bring to a boil and cook 3 minutes, stirring constantly, or until sauce leaves a clean path when spatula is drawn across bottom of skillet.
Add chicken and top with peaches. Reduce heat to medium and cook 5 minutes; turn chicken. Cook 15 minutes, uncovered, or until chicken is no longer pink inside.
Serve chicken topped with peach sauce and fried onions, if desired. For spicy BBQ flavor, serve with favorite hot sauce.
