1 1/4 ounces dry onion soup mix (french)
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon mixed herbs
2 garlic cloves, crushed
4 cups cooked rice

Tips:

  • Choose ripe apricots: For the best flavor, use ripe, juicy apricots. Look for apricots that are plump and have a deep orange color.
  • Blanch the apricots: Blanching the apricots helps to remove the skins and make them easier to puree.
  • Use a food processor or blender: To make the apricot puree, you can use a food processor or a blender. If you use a blender, be sure to blend the apricots until they are very smooth.
  • Add the apricot puree to the chicken: Once the chicken is cooked, add the apricot puree and cream to the pan. Stir until the sauce is well combined.
  • Serve immediately: Creamy apricot chicken is best served immediately, while the sauce is still warm and creamy.

Conclusion:

Creamy apricot chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of sweet apricots, savory chicken, and creamy sauce is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve it with rice or your favorite side dish and enjoy!
