Ingredients for Apricots With Honey And Rosemary France

  • 12 ripe apricots
  • Fresh Rosemary
  • Sweet Butter
  • 1/4 cup honey (choose a variety with a strong flavor profile, such as wildflower or acacia)

How to Make Apricots With Honey And Rosemary France

  1. Preheat your pan. Halve the apricots and gently remove the pits.
  2. Finely chop the rosemary needles from the sprigs.
  3. Melt the butter in a medium-sized pan over medium-high heat. Add the apricot halves and cook for approximately 1 minute per side, until lightly browned.
  4. Reduce the heat to low. Add the honey and chopped rosemary to the pan. Stir gently to combine.
  5. Cover the pan and let it simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the apricots to soften and absorb the honey-rosemary flavor. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  6. Remove from heat. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary. (You can add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors)
  7. Arrange the cooked apricots in 6 small serving dishes. Drizzle the warm honey-rosemary sauce generously over each one.
  8. Serve warm and enjoy! This recipe is best served immediately but can be enjoyed slightly cooled.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
