Step-by-Step Instructions for Creamy Peach and Honey Thyme

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, diced peaches, salt, and pepper until creamy and well mixed.
Cut a pocket in each chicken breast and stuff generously with the peach and cream cheese mixture.
Sear each stuffed chicken breast in hot olive oil for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown.
Transfer the chicken to the greased baking dish, drizzle with thyme honey sauce and bake for 20-25 minutes.
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes after removing from the oven, then slice and serve.
