Apricot Chicken
Need approximatley 2 pounds of boneless chicken breasts
Place in baking dish and sprinkle generously with salt, pepper and ground ginger.
Coat with 1 cup of orange or apricot marmalade and pour about 1/2 cup of apple juice and 1/2 cup of orange juice over chicken
Bake for about 20 minutes at 350 or 375 degrees--depends on your oven
Take out of oven --sprinkle 1 cup of dried apricots and 1 cup of raisins or currants over chicken
Sprinkle with 1/4 cup brown sugar and return to oven to bake for another 30 minutes
Baste frequently so that you get a nice glaze on the chicken---(if you use whole chicken quartered you may need to cook longer)
Place chicken, apricots and raisins on platter--pour some of the juices over the chicken to keep it moist and tasty
Pour the rest of the pan juices into a pitcher to pour over rice--it is really good and looks pretty too
