I was disappointed with this recipe. The chicken was dry and the sauce was bland.

This dish was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with fewer apricots.

I love the sweet and tangy flavor of this dish. The apricots and almonds add a nice crunch and texture. I served it with steamed broccoli and it was a perfect meal.

This apricot chicken with almonds recipe was a hit at my dinner party last night! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the apricot-almond sauce was flavorful and delicious. I served it over jasmine rice, and it was the perfect meal.
