Chicken with Apricot Sauce is a unique dish that combines the taste of chicken with the sweet flavors of apricots.
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 tsp curry powder
- 1/2 cup red wine
- 1 bay leaf
- 2-3 mashed apricots (fresh or canned)
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp oil (for sautéing)
- Slices of tart apples (for garnish)
Instructions:
Heat a grill pan or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken breasts until golden and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes per side. Set aside.
In a separate pan, heat the oil over medium heat and sauté the chopped onion until translucent.
Stir in the tomato paste, curry powder, red wine, bay leaf, and mashed apricots. Simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to combine.
Remove from heat, discard the bay leaf, and stir in the mayonnaise and heavy cream. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Pour the apricot sauce over the cooked chicken breasts.
Garnish the dish with thin slices of tart apple for a refreshing touch. Serve warm, paired with your favorite side dishes like rice or vegetables.
