Ingredients

- olive oil for browning
for the glaze
- 3/4 cup apricot jam/preserves
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- Zest and juice of 1 lemon you need approximately 2-3 tablespoons of lemon juice
- pinch of chilli flakes optional
- salt & pepper to taste
- 2-3 tablespoons water to thin down
to serve

Instructions
- Heat a large, deep frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Add a splash of oil and brown the chicken pieces all over until the skin is crisp and golden, approximately 10-15 minutes.
- In the meantime, mix together all the glaze ingredients. Add 2 tablespoons water to thin the glaze out a little but not enough to make it overly watery.
- When the chicken is golden brown and almost cooked through, pour off the excess fat.
- Return the pot to the heat and add the glaze.
- Allow the glaze to simmer gently, basting the chicken regularly until the glaze has reduced and the chicken is cooked through.
- Serve the chicken on rice with a generous amount of glaze spooned over.
