]]> Apricot Glazed Chicken

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup apricot jam
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon chicken spice (you can use a pre-made chicken spice blend or make your own with a mix of paprika, garlic powder,
  • onion powder, salt, pepper, and any other herbs or spices you like)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: Fresh herbs like parsley or thyme for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare the chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and the chicken spice blend on both sides.
  3. Make the glaze: In a small bowl, mix together the apricot jam and mayonnaise until well combined.
  4. Coat the chicken: Place the seasoned chicken breasts in a baking dish or on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spoon the apricot-mayo glaze over the chicken, spreading it evenly to coat each piece.
  5. Bake: Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the glaze is bubbly and caramelized.
  6. Serve: Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Optionally, garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or thyme before serving.
  7. Enjoy: Serve the apricot glazed chicken hot, accompanied by your favorite sides like rice, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.

This recipe offers a perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors, with the apricot jam adding a delicious fruity note to the chicken, complemented by the spices and creamy mayo. Enjoy your meal!
