Instructions

Preheat oven to 420°F (215°C). Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and spread in a baking dish.
Mix paprika, garlic powder, bouillon, salt, oregano, and black pepper. Sprinkle over chicken.
Combine peach preserves, minced garlic, apple cider vinegar, and soy sauce. Pour over chicken.
Add peach slices and jalapeño rounds on top.
Bake for 15-20 minutes until chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) and is golden. Let rest before serving.

Notes

For a vegetarian option, substitute chicken with extra-firm tofu.
Marinating chicken in the peach sauce before baking can enhance flavor.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for 3 months.
