Story

If peaches are plentiful where you live, you can even make this from fresh or frozen peaches. Just thaw if frozen, then mash them up with a potato masher, or even put in your food processor for a few spins. Then, add a touch of honey or sugar to bring out the sweetness to where you want it, and proceed just like you would with the preserves.
Peach sauce over chicken is an unexpected flavor which is especially nice for fancy "company's coming" dinners.
