Description

This is the chicken we always make when we have a glut of apricots. If apricots are out of season you can use dried apricots instead.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds, 3-⅓ ounces, weight Chicken Breasts
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 4 cloves Garlic, Crushed
  • 2 whole Onions, Finely Chopped
  • 1 piece Fresh Ginger (about 1 Inch), Grated
  • 2 pounds, 3-⅓ ounces, weight Fresh Apricots, Quartered
  • ½ cups White Sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar
  • 4 cups Chicken Stock
  • 1 Tablespoon Cornflour (same As Cornstarch)

Preparation

Bake the chicken breasts on a tray at 350F for 25 minutes or until just cooked. Dice or slice, depending on how you like it to look.

While the chicken is cooking, in a hot pan with oil, fry lightly the garlic, onions and the ginger. When they have softened, add the apricots and stir for a minute.

Add half the sugar, all the vinegar and stock. Bring to a boil and then turn down the heat and simmer for 2o minutes.

I then use my stick blender very briefly in the pan to puree some but not all of the mixture and cook for another 5 minutes.

Test the flavour. If it needs more sugar (depending on how sweet your apricots are) then add the rest of the sugar. You can also add salt if it needs it.

Mix the cornflour in a glass with enough water to make a smooth mix. Add slowly to the pan, stirring as you add it to thicken the sauce.

Turn off the heat and add the diced chicken. Let sit for 10 minutes then serve on white rice.
