Roasted Chicken With Peach BBQ Sauce

With summer almost here peaches are in season, so I was trying to come up with an interesting peach-inspired dish.  I am a big believer that home made condiments can elevate an otherwise ordinary dish, so I decided to make a peach BBQ sauce to pair with some roasted chicken.  I made the BBQ sauce by sweating some chopped onions, minced garlic and chopped peaches in a pot and adding crushed tomatoes, dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, paprika and cumin.  After letting it simmer, I broke out my trusty immersion blender and blended the sauce until smooth.  I then roasted the chicken in the oven with some carrots and yams.  The BBQ sauce was nicely balanced - sweet, tangy, savory, and you could definitely get a hint of the peach without it overpowering everything else.
