Apricot Chicken Ingredients

2 lb Chicken pieces	1 1/2 lb Apricot halves (canned)
1 pk French onion soup mix	Flour (plain)
2 c Apricot nectar

Instructions for Apricot Chicken

Dust chicken in flour. Fry chicken lightly until starting to brown. Place chicken in a casserole dish or a very deep frying pan. Add soup powder, nectar and apricots. Mix everything well. Simmer for 1 hour. I normally use 2 pieces of chicken per person and about a 1 1/2 lb can of apricot halves. This will suffice for 4 to 6 people. If you cannot get nectar, then use the juice from the apricot halves. (Of course, if you can buy apricots in nectar...) The French onion soup quantity is not critical, but a soup packet that makes up about 6 C is about right for 4 to 6 people. Serve with potato (baked or boiled), buttered carrots and peas. NOTES: * Chicken embalmed in apricot nectar -- Apricot Chicken is the ultimate bachelors delight. It is very simple and tastes wonderful. The recipe was given to me by a group of friends from back home who came to visit me. Yield: Serves 4-6. : Difficulty: easy. : Time: 10 minutes preparation, 1 hour cooking. : Precision: No need to measure. : Greg Sharp : Dept.

I love this recipe, except I never used the apricot halves and I added a diced onion, sliced carrots and some champinions and cooked it in an electric fry pan. I have not cooked this for years as my children never liked it, but I am tempted to cook it just for myself, leaving out the champinions and freeze the leftovers.
