Apricot Chicken


This was easy and delicious !!




This technically should serve four but we served it with A Nutty Cous Cous and only ate 1/2 a serve of chicken so had it for dinner and lunch the next day !

Chicken:
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
salt
pepper
olive oil

Apricot Sauce:
a blub of oil, I used olive
3/4 cup dry white wine, I used Chardonnay
1/4 of a red onion
4 fresh apricots, pitted and chopped
3 tablespoons apricot jam, I used St. Dalfour
2 teaspoons fresh tarragon, chopped (or 1/2 tsp dried)

Here's what you do ...

Rub the chicken with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook on the BBQ. Or you could pan fry if you wanted.

To make the sauce ... Saute onion in oil over a medium heat. Add wine. Reduce ... maybe 3-5 minutes. Add apricots. Cook for a couple of minutes ... the fruit will break down. Stir in jam, tarragon and a pinch of salt. I kept it on the heat and stirred until it was combined and a thickness I was happy with. Take off heat and let sit til chicken is done.

When chicken is finished, top with apricot sauce and serve.

Delicious !!
