Apricot Glazed Chicken
5
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 35 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes
Yield: serves 4
Serving Size: 1, 4 oz. chicken breast
Recipe slightly adapted from The Dinner Fix
Ingredients
  • cooking spray (my favourite is Spectrum Coconut Oil)
  • 1/2 cup whole wheat flour (can use gluten-free blend)
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp Mrs. Dash Original salt-free seasoning
  • 4, 4-oz. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 3/4 cup apricot preserves
  • 3/4 cup organic BBQ sauce (look for one sweetened with honey)
  • 1 Tbsp Bragg liquid aminos (can use low-sodium soy sauce)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425F. Spray a square baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
  2. Mix the flour, pepper, and seasoning in a bowl. Place chicken in the flour mixture and turn to coat. Place coated chicken on prepared pan and place in hot oven for 8 minutes. After 8 minutes, flip chicken over and set timer for another 8 minutes.
  3. While chicken is crisping, slice onion and set aside. Combine apricot preserves, BBQ sauce, and soy sauce in a small bowl. Set aside.
  4. When timer rings for chicken, take chicken out and reduce oven temperature to 350F. Pour sauce over chicken and scatter onion on top. Return to oven and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until chicken is completely cooked through.
