Oh my, that sounds delicious! I love apricot sauces, and with this chicken dish it should be fantastic - hope to make this soon. Thanks!


Marmay, I made your chicken recipe and it was delicious - I have a picture if you would like me to post it to your recipe page...just let me know. Not only good tasting, but very pretty, too, and so easy to put together...the sauce was delicious - thanks for another good chicken recipe to add to my "keeper" file!
PS - next time I will make this with rice, as the sauce would be so good over it.


This looks wonderful. Can't wait to try it! Thanks for a great post! 5
