for flavor and categorization

A little too sweet (and therefore off tasting). I'd cut the amount of peaches in half. That should also help keep the dish from being too "creamy" which was another comment I had from the tasters (family). They still ate it all.

My husband Jon loves this dish and was telling me about it. I had trouble picturing broccoli, peaches and chicken together and finally got up the courage to ask my mother-in-law for the recipe. I love this dish and am still amazed how the flavors blend perfectly together. [I posted this recipe.]
