I made this with chicken drumsticks and cooked it a little longer without stirring it. Otherwise I didn't change anything.. We really enjoyed this and quite enough left to freeze which was eaten a few days ago and husband said.... mmmm,, We will have that one again... I served it with homemade fried rice. I already have chicken waiting to be cooked this way again.. A winner

Definitely 'fantastic' and 'yummy', I used one large chicken breast for 2 servings, cut down on the cornflour, and only had the apricots and not the nectar. Just added a little water instead, and was still a 5* recipe. Also had it with rice instead of pasta. Thanks for posting =)

This dish was wonderful. I made it with about 1 lb of chicken breast. The cans of apricots and nectar available were a little smaller, which was fine. I only needed about 1/2 C cornflour. Instead of pasta, I served it with brown rice. The dish went very well with the nuttiness of the rice. Thanks for posting this. It will become one of my staples!
