Baked Chicken with Peaches

3 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1/4 c + 2 T brown sugar
1/8 tsp ground ginger
1/8 tsp ground cloves
2 1/4 tsp lemon juice
2 fresh peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced thin.

Preheat oven to 350. Place chicken in greased pan. Sprinkle with 1/2 the brown sugar. Place peaches on top of brown sugar, then sprinkle with remaining brown sugar, ginger, cloves, and lemon juice. Bake for 30-60 minutes, basting often with juices.
