3-INGREDIENT APRICOT GLAZED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F (180C).
• For easy clean-up, line a roasting pan or a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
• Place chicken, skin-side up, on prepared pan.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 glaze ingredients.
• Pour sauce over chicken and spread liberally on each piece.
• Bake, uncovered, for about 1 hour, or until chicken is cooked through.

APRICOT-GLAZE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place chicken in a greased 9-in. square baking dish. Combine the mayonnaise, preserves and onion; spoon over chicken. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 25-minutes or until chicken juices run clear.

STICKY APRICOT CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat a large, deep frying pan over medium-high heat.
• Add a splash of oil and brown the chicken pieces all over until the skin is crisp and golden, approximately 10-15 minutes.
• In the meantime, mix together all the glaze ingredients. Add 2 tablespoons water to thin the glaze out a little but not enough to make it overly watery.
• When the chicken is golden brown and almost cooked through, pour off the excess fat.
• Return the pot to the heat and add the glaze.
• Allow the glaze to simmer gently, basting the chicken regularly until the glaze has reduced and the chicken is cooked through.
• Serve the chicken on rice with a generous amount of glaze spooned over.

APRICOT-GLAZED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Cook shallots and ginger in oil in a small heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in vinegar and boil until reduced by about half, about 2 minutes. Add soy sauce, preserves, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes.
• Purée sauce in a blender until smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids), then cool to room temperature.
• Divide chicken between 2 large sealable bags and pour marinade over chicken. Seal bags, pressing out excess air, and marinate, chilled, turning bag over occasionally, at least 8 hours.
• Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in middle.
• Line a 17- by 12-inch shallow heavy baking pan with 2 slightly overlapping sheets of foil, then lightly oil foil. Arrange chicken (with marinade) in 1 layer in pan. Roast chicken, turning once, until deep brown, cooked through, and glazed, about 40 minutes total.

APRICOT GLAZED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Spray a large skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Brown chicken in heated skillet.
• Add chicken broth, jam and soy sauce. Simmer for 20 minutes or until chicken is done (no longer pink in the center).
• Remove chicken from skillet. Add 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water to sauce to thicken (equal amounts more of each if you like it thicker). Return chicken to skillet and turn to coat thoroughly with sauce.

APRICOT-GLAZED CHICKEN WITH DRIED PLUMS AND SAGE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Trim any extra fat from the chicken pieces and transfer them to a large roasting pan or broiler pan. If you don't have a roasting pan that's large enough, use 2 identical 9 x 13-inch baking pans.
• Mix together the preserves and the vinegar in a mixing bowl. Dump over the chicken, add the remaining ingredients, and toss with the chicken until the chicken is evenly coated. Arrange the chicken pieces in the pan(s), skin side up, and spaced evenly apart.
• If you want to prepare this in advance, you can do everything up to this point, cover the pans, and put them in the fridge until you're ready to roast the chicken, but bring it back to room temperature before roasting.
• Roast until the tops of the chicken pieces are browned, about 35-40 minutes.
• Dave's Take:
• Recipes that use a lot of whole peeled garlic cloves are a perfect reason to look for containers of peeled garlic in the produce section of the supermarket. In my experience, Christopher Ranch is the best brand out there right now. The garlic is always fresh and potent.
