This recipe is from Kayotic Kitchen, which is a fantastic food blog with wonderful photography. It’s very similar to sweet and sour chicken. The flavors all come together nicely and all of us love the dish. The original recipe calls for additional sugar, but I find it to be quite sweet enough just with the peaches and their juice.
