APRICOT GLAZED CHICKEN WITH DRIED PLUMS AND SAGE



Apricot Glazed Chicken with Dried Plums and Sage image

This is an elegant way to make a whole lot of chicken that tastes really, really good. It's kind of sweet and sour; sweet from the apricot preserves and the plums and sour from the bit of vinegar that I add. But what makes this dish are the sage leaves. They give a distinctive taste to the dish and make it a beautiful, festive platter that you can really be proud of.

Time 50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 roasting chickens, cut into pieces
1 (12-ounce) jar apricot preserves
15 medium dried plums, pitted
1/3 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon white vinegar
3 pinches salt
20 grinds black pepper
10 cloves garlic, peeled
20 to 30 sage leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Trim any extra fat from the chicken pieces and transfer them to a large roasting pan or broiler pan. If you don't have a roasting pan that's large enough, use 2 identical 13 by 9-inch baking pans.
  • Toss all of the ingredients together with the chicken until the chicken is evenly coated with the sauce. Arrange the chicken pieces skin-side up in the pan, spaced evenly apart.
  • If you're looking to prepare in advance, you can do everything up to this point and cover the roasting dishes and refrigerate until you're ready to roast the chicken.
  • Roast, uncovered, until the tops of the chicken pieces are browned and the chicken is cooked through, and the juices run clear, about 35 to 40 minutes.

Chicken Sauté with Olives and Plum Tomatoes image

Categories     Chicken     Olive     Tomato     Sauté     Quick & Easy     Bell Pepper     Spring     Healthy     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 2 servings; can be doubled

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
2 6-ounce skinless boneless chicken breast halves
3 tablespoons chopped fresh marjoram
1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
5 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cups seeded diced plum tomatoes
1/4 cup coarsely chopped pitted Kalamata or other brine-cured black olives

Steps:

  • Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle chicken on both sides with salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon marjoram. Add to skillet; sauté until golden, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to plate. Add 1 tablespoon oil to skillet. Add bell pepper; sauté 2 minutes. Add garlic; sauté 1 minute. Add tomatoes; sauté until juices are released, about 3 minutes. Stir in olives and 2 tablespoons marjoram. Return chicken to skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, firm plums for drying. Avoid any plums with bruises or soft spots.
  • Use a variety of olive varieties to add flavor to the chicken. Kalamata, Castelvetrano, and Niçoise olives are all great options.
  • If you don't have time to dry your own plums, you can use store-bought dried plums or prunes.
  • Soak the dried plums in warm water for 30 minutes before using them. This will help to soften them and make them more flavorful.
  • Be careful not to overcook the chicken. Chicken is best when it is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the chicken with a side of roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
