Add two tablespoons of olive oil to a large skillet or saucepan over medium-high heat.
Place the chicken pieces in the pan. Don’t crowd them, or they won’t brown correctly.
Cook the chicken pieces for 3 minutes until golden brown. Turn and cook the other side for an additional 3 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the pan. Set aside.
Decrease the heat to medium-low. Add the rest of the olive oil to the pan. Add the spices and cook for about 1 minute. This will release an incredible aroma.
Return the chicken to the pan.
Add enough chicken broth to cover the chicken and increase the heat to medium-high. Cook until the water boils. Let it boil for 2-3 minutes. Then, cover, decrease the heat and let it simmer for 45 minutes.
Add honey, apricots, and prunes. Cook for an additional 30 minutes.
