Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 large skinless boneless chicken breasts, chopped to 1" pieces
- ½ cup dried apricots halved
- ½ cup whole pecans
- 1 cup fresh apple cider
Instructions
- In a large cast iron sauté pan, melt the butter oven medium high heat until it slowly becomes darker, essentially brown butter.
- Season your chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Sear on all sides in the brown butter (lower the heat to medium heat to allow your chicken to cook but not burn the butter).
- Toss in dried apricots and pecans. Saute until chicken is 3/4 cooked.
- Add apple cider and increase heat to high, until half of the cider reduces and becomes a glaze.
- Serve over brown rice, quinoa, or your favorite noodles.
