Rinse the chicken and pat dry.

For The Salsa: Mix the peaches, strawberries, red onion, chili powder, cilantro, tequila, lime juice and orange juice in a medium bowl.

Chill, covered, in the refrigerator.

Simmer the vinegar in a non-reactive saucepan until reduced by two-thirds.

Remove from heat.

Stir in the lime juice.

Let stand until cool. Pour into a squeeze bottle.

For The Spoon Bread: Combine the garlic, onion, milk and chicken stock in a medium saucepan.

Bring to a boil.

Stir in the cornmeal.

Cook over medium heat for 15 to 20 minutes or until thickened, stirring frequently.

Remove from heat. Add the cheese, chiles, syrup, salt and egg yolks, mixing well.

Beat the egg whites in a mixer bowl until stiff peaks form.

Fold into the batter.

Pour into a 9x12-inch greased baking pan.

Bake at 350℉ (180℃) for 1 hour and 20 minutes.
