This recipe is a great starting point, but I think it could be improved with a few tweaks. I would add some garlic and ginger to the sauce, and I would also use a different type of rice.

I'm allergic to coconut, so I substituted almond milk in the sauce. It turned out great! This dish is a great option for people with food allergies.

This recipe was a total fail. The chicken was tough and the apricot sauce was bland. I would not recommend it.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the apricot sauce was delicious. I would recommend using a different chicken cooking method next time.

This dish was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved it. I might try it again with less apricot sauce next time.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but this dish was surprisingly good. The apricot sauce really balanced out the coconut flavor. I would definitely make it again.

I've tried many coconut chicken recipes, but this one is by far the best. The apricot sauce is what really makes it special. It's so flavorful and pairs perfectly with the chicken.

This coconut chicken with apricot sauce was an absolute delight! The chicken was juicy and tender, and the apricot sauce was a perfect balance of sweet and tangy. I served it over rice, and it was a hit with my family.
