BRAISED CHICKEN WITH APRICOTS

6 oz. B&R Farms Dried Apricots
1 cup hot chicken stock or hot water
3 tbsp vegetable oil
3½ pound frying chicken, quartered
1 cup coarsely chopped onion
2 large ripe tomatoes, peeled, seeded and coarsely chopped
2 tsp salt
1 tsp hot paprika
1 tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp ground coriander
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
2 cups cooked basmati rice

Pour hot stock or water over B&R Farms Dried Apricots. Set aside.

Heat oil in large skillet or large, deep saucepan over medium heat. Brown chicken pieces on both sides. Remove chicken and set aside.

Cook onion in skillet until just soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, apricots in soaking liquid, salt, paprika, cinnamon, coriander and pepper, scraping browned buts from bottom of pan as you stir.

Return chicken to skillet, turning to coat with sauce. Cover, lower heat and simmer 25 to 30 minutes, turning chicken once. Skim any fat from sauce, serve immediately over hot rice.
