How to Make Apricot Dijon Chicken
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup apricot preserves, 1/4 cup ketchup, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, and 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger.
- Reserve 1/4 cup of the apricot mixture for the rice.
- Place 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total) in the prepared baking dish.
- Pour the remaining apricot mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) on an instant-read thermometer.
- While the chicken is baking, cook 1 cup of rice according to package directions, using 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- To serve, sprinkle 1/4 cup chopped hazelnuts over the chicken breasts. Stir the reserved apricot mixture into the cooked rice and serve alongside the chicken.
