Ingredients
    1/4 cup margarine or butter
    1/4 cup honey
    1 teaspoon rose water
    1 teaspoon salt
    ground black pepper to taste
    4 pounds bone-in chicken pieces, with skin
    1 pound fresh peaches, pitted and sliced
    1 tablespoon white sugar
    1/2 cup toasted slivered almonds (optional)

    Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

    Remove chicken pieces to a serving dish and pour the juices from the pan over them. Garnish with slivered almonds.
