Rather than frying up chicken in a lot of oil, I prefer to cook it in this simple sauce-it's tasty and so much better for us.-Joy Cochran, Roy, Washington

Not a fan of this recipe. The chicken was bland and the glaze was too sweet for my taste.

This recipe is a keeper! The chicken was so moist and flavorful, and the glaze was the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. I'll definitely be making this again.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the glaze was delicious. I think I'll try it again with a different cooking method.

I made this chicken last night and it was delicious! The apricot glaze was so easy to make and it really added a lot of flavor to the chicken. I served it with rice and roasted vegetables and it was a perfect meal.

This apricot glazed chicken recipe was a hit with my family! The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the glaze was perfectly sweet and tangy. I will definitely be making this again.
