  It is the time for fresh fruit and fast cooking. A new year of abundance has begun.
Roadside stands are full of juicy delights and everyone wants to be enjoying the bounteous harvest. For a week, each dinner is a starlit festival.
Thanks to quick-cooking boneless chicken breasts, this meal can be done in 30 minutes. leaving plenty of time to enjoy a lovely warm evening and relax in the Sukkah under a peaceful sky.
Ingredients
6 boneless, skinless, Chicken Breast halves
1/2 cup Flour 1 bunch Cilantro, chopped
1 large Onion, halved and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons freshly grated Ginger Root
6 fresh, ripe Peaches, peeled and sliced
2 tablespoons Soy Sauce
1 tablespoon Rice Vinegar
1 teaspoon Chinese 5 Spice Powder
2 tablespoons Honey
3 tablespoons Vegetable Oil
Method
In a large saucepan, saute the Onion and Ginger Root in 1 tablespoon of the Vegetable Oil until translucent.
Whilst the onion is cooking, dredge the Chicken Breasts in the Flour, then brown them in a skillet which contains the remaining 2 tablespoons of Vegetable Oil. It will take about 5 minutes a side to cook them thoroughly.
Add the remaining ingredients to the saucepan which contains the Onions, bring to a boil over medium heat and cook for 2 minutes, stirring to make sure it doesn't stick.
Pour the contents of the saucepan over the Chicken Breasts in the skillet and let cook for one minute.
