This was delicious. We ate it up.
Cooked this for my family tonight. Every one thought it was terific.Thanks for making me look good. The recipe was very very easy to fix. Exstreamly delicious thanks again.
This recipe is amazing! My whole family loved it and my two pickiest eater asked for it again after only two bites. :) Definitely worth a try if you are a little unsure. Delicious. We will be eating this again!!
I actually didn't want to make this recipe, only reason I did is because I actually had all the ingredients to do so. This turned out so well, my son whom does not each much - had two servings of it! He loved it! My man loved it! My daughter actually ate everything off her plate and she usually leaves at least something behind! I actually like it also, even though I can't stand apricots. The flavors all blended together nicely. I made this on Wednesday 12/5/2012 and wrote it down in my notebook of recipes to do again! I had it with rice pilaf and steamed kale.
I made this recipe and it was delicious, my kids loved so much. I had no apricot preserves so instead I use peach in light syrup. I put the peach in the food processor and use it well. I also added a pinch of salt to each breast.
This was so easy, with a minimum of ingredients, and full of flavor. I bet you can substitute a few different different kinds of preserves for a change of a pace, but I used the apricot. I overdid the chicken broth so my sauce was kind of soupy, but that was easy to fix. I just removed the chicken and put the sauce in a pot, added a little more cornstarch and preserves. The chicken came out tender and flavorful. Served with rice & mixed veggies. This one is a keeper!
