Spiced Apricot Chicken (Eating Well) Preparation

[1] SAUTE CHICKEN: Season boneless, skinless chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper. In a large heavy skillet, heat 1-1/2 tsp. olive or canola oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sear until well browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a plate (not paper) and tent with foil. [2] FLAVOR: Reduce heat to medium and add second measure of oil to skillet. Add the aromatics in order listed. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. [3] MAKE SAUCE: Add the pineapple juice, broth, apricots and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer. Cook until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. [4] ASSEMBLE & SERVE: Return chicken and juices to skillet; reduce heat to low. Simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 4 minutes. Transfer chicken to a warmed platter. Season sauce with salt and pepper and spoon over the chicken. Garnish. >FYI: When sauteing skinless boneless chicken breast halves, the first goal is to get a nicely caramelized, slightly crusted exterior, while keeping the inside moist and tender. The second goal is to get a fast, delicious pan sauce that capitalizes on the rich flavor left in the skillet after the Chicken is cooked. Therefore Eating Well”s Kitchen staff recommend using a cast iron skillet. March 1998 has ten sauces to try. >from Pat Hanneman (Kitpath) MC-PER SERVING: 205 CAL, 5.2g fat (22.5% cff).
