Tequila Peach Relish With Roasted Chicken

 

1 cup Flav-R-Pac Fruit Favorites Peach Cubes
Whole Chicken, quartered (about 4 lbs.)
4 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Kosher Salt
½ tsp Black Pepper, ground
½ cup Red Onion, peeled, ¼” diced
¾ cup White Tequila
½ cup Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce
¼ cup Green Onions, sliced
½ tbsp Granulated Sugar
2 tbsp Cilantro, chopped

Preheat oven to 450° F. Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Rub chicken with 1 tablespoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Arrange, skin-side up, on a rimmed baking sheet.
Roast until golden and a thermometer inserted into thickest part of breast (without touching bone) registers 165° F, about 30 minutes.
In a small saucepot over medium heat, add Flav-R-Pac Fruit Favorites Peach Cubes and red onion. Saute until caramelized.
Deglaze the pan with tequila and bring to a simmer to cook out the alcohol.
Add BBQ sauce, green onions, sugar, and cilantro.
Serve ½ cup of relish with quarter of chicken.
