In a medium bowl, mix chopped peaches with chili peppers, sugar, and lemon juice. Allow mixture to sit for an hour.
Place mixture in a heavy-bottomed pan on the stovetop, on medium-high heat.
Cook for 25-30 minutes at a rolling boil until the glaze thickens.
You may want to smash the mixture with a potato masher to help break down the peaches. You can test the readiness of the glaze by spooning it out onto a plate and if the mixture doesn’t run and has thickened, you are ready to remove it from the heat.
The night before, truss the chicken and rub it entirely with salt. Allow the chicken to sit (brine) overnight.
When ready to cook, bring the chicken to room temperature.
Preheat the oven to 400F.
Rub chicken all over with olive oil and place in oven-safe baking dish and cook.
About 10 minutes before the chicken is done cooking, heavily baste with the peach and chili pepper glaze and allow it to caramelize.
Chicken is ready when it has reached an internal temperature of 165F and the jam glaze has browned, approx. 1 hour.
