APRICOT & FIG ROASTED CHICKEN image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Chicken

Yield 6 bowls

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cut up fryer chicken (I don't use the neck, instead I save that in the freezer to make bone broth)
½ cup apricot jam
½ cup balsamic vinegar
½ cup water
4 T extra virgin olive oil
1 T. finely chopped oregano
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 small leek, chopped
8-10 dried or fresh figs (cut in half or into quarters)

Steps:

  • 1. Rise chicken and place in baking dish. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. 2. In separate small dish, whisk together apricot jam, balsamic vinegar, water, olive oil, chopped oregano, and sea salt. Pour over chicken. Place leeks and figs on the bottom of the pan around the chicken. 3. Place pan in oven and roast for 1 ½ to 2 hours. The longer it cooks, the more tender the meat will be. Check on it periodically to baste. 4. Serve over quinoa or brown rice (optional) and with a side of parboiled greens or steamed broccoli.

This is the best roasted chicken recipe I've ever tried. The chicken is so moist and juicy, and the glaze is amazing.

The chicken was a little dry, but the glaze was delicious. I'll try using a different cooking method next time.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with a rotisserie chicken and it turned out great.

The glaze was a little too sweet for my taste, but the chicken was cooked perfectly.

I was skeptical about the apricot-fig glaze, but it turned out to be delicious. The chicken was also very moist and tender.

The chicken was a little bland, but the glaze was really good. I'll try adding some more spices to the chicken next time.

I'm not a big fan of fruit on savory dishes, but this recipe changed my mind. The apricot-fig glaze was the perfect balance of sweet and tart.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chicken didn't turn out as flavorful as I had hoped. I think I'll try adding some extra herbs and spices next time.
