Sear

Brown the chicken
9
Add chicken to the skillet and sear on each side for ⏱️ 5 minutes until golden brown. Move the onions off to the side or scooch them to another spot in the pan. You want the chicken to lie flat in the pan so it gets a good sear on it.
10
Remove chicken from the pan and cover it off to the side. It will finish cooking in the oven.
11
Sauté
12
Add sliced garlic and collard greens to the pan. Remove the onions once they are golden brown. You'll add them back later.

Stir collards and garlic to cover them with the remnants of juices and seasonings.
14
Bake
15
Add chicken back to the pan with sliced peaches, cooked onions, and half of the freshly torn basil. Pour chicken broth over the top, sprinkle with the rest of the black pepper, and gently cover with tinfoil or a lid. Transfer to a 350°F oven for ⏱️ 30 minutes.

Remove from oven. The peaches should be soft and tender, and the internal temperature of the chicken should be at 165°F at a minimum. Drizzle honey and squeeze lemon over the top to serve. Serve with additional fresh basil, salt, and pepper.
