Even the pickiest eaters, can't resist chicken with a sweet apricot jam sauce.





Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Salt and pepper

1/2 cup apricot jam

1 tablespoon water



Preparations

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Add the chicken breasts to the pan and cook, undisturbed, for 5 minutes. Carefully flip the chicken pieces and continue cooking another 4 to 5 minutes, or until chicken is browned and cooked through. Meanwhile, combine the jam and water in a small saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring, just until warmed. Spoon over the seared chicken breasts and serve immediately. (Makes 4 servings)



Variations

You can also spoon the glaze over hot grilled chicken breasts.
