Instructions
- In a medium bowl, toss the chicken with onion powder, garlic powder, ginger, and salt.
- In a 10-inch skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and brown for 2-3 minutes per side without stirring.
- Stir and move the chicken to one side of the skillet.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the water to the skillet. Use a spatula to scrape up any brown bits.
- Add the jam, ketchup, cider vinegar, Dijon, soy sauce, and red pepper flakes if using. Bring to a gentle simmer, adjusting the heat if needed, and let simmer about 7 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Serve over rice.
Notes
- For a thicker sauce, remove cooked chicken from pan and let sauce simmer for a few minutes more.
- Apricot chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
