Apricot Chicken

This chicken makes for a light and delicious meal at any time of year.

I served this over couscous with a side of steamed vegetables on one of the evenings when Bruce was not at home (he isn't a fan of apricots...or couscous for that matter), so I got to enjoy this meal all by myself, and I didn't mind one bit!
