Remove chicken from oven and pour chicken juices and cooked onion into a separate bowl. Reserve chicken. Heat a large pot over medium heat and add the sugar. Cook until it begins to caramelize. Add the peaches to the sugar and coat to combine. Cook for 30 seconds before adding the bourbon. Cook for 2 minutes, until bourbon is evaporated. Pour in the reserved chicken juices, onion and peach juice. Stir well and cook for 15 minutes, until the sauce is thick and syrupy. Season with salt and pepper.
