Cooking Steps
In a small pot, combine rice, 1¼ cups water (2¼ cups for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.
Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
While rice cooks, wash and dry produce.
Halve peach and remove pit; thinly slice peach. Zest and quarter lime. Halve, core, and slice bell pepper into ¼-inch strips. Trim scallions; cut whites into 1-inch pieces and thinly slice greens. Roughly chop cilantro. Roughly chop peanuts.
In a small bowl, toss peach slices with ½ TBSP sugar (1 TBSP for 4 servings) and a pinch of salt; set aside.
In a second small bowl, combine soy sauce, ginger paste, chili sauce, jam, juice from half the lime (all the lime for 4 servings), and pepper; set aside. TIP: For a milder sauce, use less ginger paste!
Pat chicken* dry with paper towels; season all over with salt and pepper.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned and cooked through, 5-7 minutes per side.
Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Wipe out pan.
Heat a large drizzle of oil in pan used for chicken over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper, scallion whites, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5 minutes.
Add peach slices (and any juices) to pan; cook, stirring, until lightly browned, 1-2 minutes.
Add 2 TBSP water (4 TBSP for 4 servings); cook, stirring, until thickened and syrupy, 30-60 seconds more.
Remove from heat; stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4) until melted.
Return pan with peach mixture to medium-low heat; add soy-ginger sauce. Cook, stirring, until sauce has thickened and peach and bell pepper are tender, 1-2 minutes.
Fluff rice with a fork; stir in lime zest and half the cilantro.
Slice chicken crosswise.
Divide rice between shallow bowls. Top with chicken, peach and bell pepper, and any remaining sauce from pan. Garnish with peanuts, scallion greens, and remaining cilantro. Serve.

Reviews from our home cooks
Absolutely delicious. I loved the combination of the peaches with the green peppers and scallions. The sauce is amazing with the ginger, lime, peach jam and soy sauce. My favorite new recipe so far!
Delicious flavor, loved the amount of veggies and the variety. Would prefer if you could just bake the chicken and cook the veggies to save time and be more convenient. Love the bigger portion of rice, sauce was great. Everything was perfect, liked that we threw in the cilantro with the rice which was nice. Key is to not burn the chicken, sauce was incredible.
I love the ginger peach pan sauce with real peach slices. I liked the peanuts also. I would like to see more meals with nuts (peanuts, walnuts, almonds, cashews) involved.
Wooooow. I thought this would be not the best tbh with the peaches but it was GOOD. The salt, spice, everything was spot on.
I used all the ginger sauce, added Taijin to the chicken for seasoning, and squeezed a lime over the bowl of food at the end, and not a lot of flavor or heat for this dish. Added an extra pepper and scallion I had on hand for extra veggies too. I did like the cooking with peaches aspect and making the sauce in the pan with veggies.
I would never have thought I would like this but it was so good. I used very little ginger so it wasn't too strong.
This one was fantastic. I didn't include the cilantro, since some in the household don't like it. It didn't need it. Lots of flavor!
Used less ginger and it was perfect. Good mix of various flavors that work well together.
Very good - we don't care for green pepper, wish there was a way to substitute yellow or red pepper instead.
The peaches may have been better if they were grilled first or at least peeled. The skin gave the meal weird texture.
