Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 lbs chicken thighs or chicken breasts (bone in skin on)
  • kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger
  • 1 cup apricot preserves or apricot jam
  • 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 2 pinches red pepper flakes

Instruction

  • Season the chicken with salt and fresh ground black pepper. Heat the oil in a skillet or pan over medium-high heat.  Cook chicken thighs until golden brown on both sides.  Place on a plate and cover loosely.
  • Drain all but 1 tablespoon of oil from the skillet.  Turn the heat to low. Add garlic and ginger. Cook for 1 minute; stirring constantly. Add apricot preserves, soy sauce, ketchup, and crushed red pepper.  Whisk to combine while simmering over low heat.  Add chicken thighs back to the skillet and spoon the sauce over the chicken.
  • Cover loosely with aluminum foil and simmer for 30-40 minutes or until tender.  Check on the dish frequently; stirring the sauce several times.  Sprinkle with green onions and serve promptly.
