Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 ¼ lbs boneless chicken thighs or breasts
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric ground
  • 1 teaspoon ginger ground
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon ground
  • Black pepper ground
  • Salt
  • 3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • ½ cup dried apricots
  • ½ cup dried prunes
  • 4 tablespoons honey

Instructions

  • 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.
