Did you know that 1/2 cup of canned peaches gives you more than 10 percent of the vitamin A you need for the day? Because the base of this chutney is canned peaches, you’re making a delicious sauce that provides fiber and important nutrients with minimum effort. This dish creates a fragrant, sweet and slightly spicy fruit chutney right in the pan used to sauté the meat. Serve it over rice, noodles or couscous.
