Apricot Chicken

---------- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.02

Title: APRICOT CHICKEN
Categories: Poultry, Usenet
Yield: 4 servings

2 lb Chicken pieces
1 pk French onion soup mix
2 c Apricot nectar
1 1/2 lb Apricot halves (canned)
Flour (plain)

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:

* Chicken embalmed in apricot nectar -- Apricot Chicken is the ultimate
bachelors delight. It is very simple and tastes wonderful. The recipe was
given to me by a group of friends from back home who came to visit me.
