Apricot Chicken Recipe
Recipe
Ingredients
2 lb chicken pieces 1 package french onion soup mix 2 cup apricot nectar 1 1/2 lb apricot halves (canned) 1 flour (plain)
Recipe
Preparation
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:

: Difficulty: easy. : Time: 10 minutes preparation, 1 hour cooking. : Precision: No need to measure.
