Directions
Chicken With Apricot Salsa, Pulled this recipe from a cookbook about 15 years ago, but unfortunately don’t recall the title of the book., I often have plain grilled meat so finding great sauces/salsas is a must. This one is a keeper. I was worried about it being too sweet so used a reduced sugar jam. I made 2 small changes… I read the recipe incorrectly and used ground coriander seeds cilantro rather than the dried leaf. The other was that I’d run out of cinnamon stick so used 1tspn of ground. Also, I fried off the dried spices prior to adding the other ingredients so they wouldn’t have that ‘raw’ taste. I found the spices to be well balanced and well matched to the other ingredients. I have left-overs which I think will go wonderfully well with grilled lamb. Thanks Mike. Made for Aus/NZ Make My Recipe #5, Made for Recipe Swap #19 Aus/NZ. This was delicious. I only had tomatoes w/jalapenos in it so that’s what used. The combination of the heat and sweet was very good. I also did not have cinnamon sticks thought I did so used 1/2 teas. cinnamon. We did have leftover salsa and I can’t wait to have it with tortilla chips. Thanks for posting this Mike!
