List of Ingredients



• 6 (5-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves without tenderloins
  
• 1/2 tsp each kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  
• 1-1/2 Tbsp canola or vegetable oil
  
• 1 cup chicken broth
  
• 3/4 cup apricot preserves
  
• 1 tsp soy sauce
  
• 1/4 cup sliced scallions
  






Instructions



1. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is very hot, brown breasts on both sides, about 2 minutes per side; remove chicken to a plate.
   
   
2. Add broth, preserves and soy sauce to hot skillet; bring mixture to a boil. Boil 4 minutes. Return chicken to skillet; reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer 7 minutes, spooning apricot mixture over chicken several times; cook until chicken is no longer pink in center.
   
   
3. Transfer chicken to plates, spooning apricot glaze over to coat. Sprinkle with scallions.
