I am a huge fan of Apricot flavored foods so this chicken dish was so good over noodles!
4-5 boneless chicken breasts
Olive Oil
1 ts. garlic, minced
salt
pepper
1 18 oz Jar Apricot Jam/preserves
Serve over No Yolks or Whole Wheat Egg noodles
Heat 2 Tb. Olive oil in a large skillet (I use an Electric skillet so it fits all of it but if you don't have one that large cook the chicken in batches. Salt and Pepper chicken and saute' in Olive Oil (add more oil if you do this in batches) until browned and put lid on pan for 10 mins. on med/low heat. Remove chicken to a plate and add 1 ts. garlic to hot pan and stir about 1 minute. Add 1/2 C. hot water to pan and turn heat to low....After chicken has sat for at least 5 minutes cut into large chunks and add back to pan. Spoon 1/2 a jar of Apricot jam into pan and let simmer on low for 5 minutes until thick and bubbly. Serve over Noodles or Rice! This would be great with red peppers in it but I didn't have any one hand, you can saute' the red pepper after your remove the chicken for a few mins. and then add garlic and proceed as the recipe says.
HAPPY SPRING!
Sounds yummy Jeni! I order something very similar to this at Olive Garden. I'm going to definitely try it at home. Thanks for sharing.
