Apricot Chicken Nuggets

I make chicken at least twice a week and I wanted to switch things up a bit so I found this recipe and it reminds me of a dish a friend always makes so I decided to try it. Last couple times were a hit. Check it out...

Ingredients:

1 lb of organic chicken breast

2 cups of Italian flavored bread crumbs

2 cups flour

1 egg

Vegetable oil

1 jar of apricot preserve

1cup of water 

Clean and cut chicken into bite size nugget pieces. Dip into flour, then egg wash (egg mixed with water) dip in bread crumbs and then set aside. In a dip frying pan fill up with vegetable oil. Heat until it sizzles. Add chicken. Turn once bottom has a crunchy dark coat on it. Once finished put chicken on a dish with paper towel to drain any extra oil. 

In a seperate frying pan add apricot preserves and a cup of water. Boil on low until completely mixed. 

Add chicken to a baking dish and top with apricot preserves. Bake at 350 for 30 mins. 

This is a great main dish or appetizer.
