Making Apricot-Glazed Chicken Breasts Dinner Recipe

Chicken has a well-known affinity for fruit that opens the door to lots of options for preparation.Here,the apricot shakes the flavor of the chicken awake. Ingredients are;
(1) 10 dried apricot halves (2) 1 cup no-salt,fat-free vegetable broth (3) 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary (4) 2 teaspoons apple-cider vinegar (5) 2 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce (6) 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (7) 2 teaspoon olive oil (8)3 very large skinless and boneless 10oz chicken breast,halved,or 6 small skinless and boneless 6oz chicken breast.

 1. Preheat oven to 375

2. Bring the apricots,broth,rosemary,vinegar,soy sauce,and pepper to a boil in a small saucepan set over medium-high heat.Remove from heat,cover,and set aside until the mixture cools and the apricots soften,about 10 minutes.

3. Pour the apricot mixture into a food processor fitted with the chopping blades,or a large blender.Add the olive oil and puree,scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary.

 4. Place the chicken breasts in a roasting pan or baking dish large enough to hold them comfortably in one layer.Spread the apricot glaze over the breast.

Bake 10 minutes undisturb,then bake another 15 minutes,basting with the pan juices every 5 minutes,until chicken is cooked through and lightly brown.

Let stand at room temperature 5 minutes before serving
