Apricot Glazed Chicken (Dave Lieberman adaptation)

Ingredients
2 lbs of boneless skinless chicken breasts (I prefer thin strips)1 (12-ounce) jar reduced sugar apricot preserves ( I prefer simply fruit)16 medium dried plums, pitted1/3 cup olive oil1 tablespoon white vinegar3 pinches salt20 grinds black pepper10 cloves garlic, peeled20 to 30 sage leaves
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Trim any extra fat from the chicken pieces and transfer them to a large roasting pan or broiler pan. If you don't have a roasting pan that's large enough, use 2 identical 13 by 9-inch baking pans.

Toss all of the ingredients together with the chicken until the chicken is evenly coated with the sauce. Arrange the chicken pieces in the pan, spaced evenly apart.

If you're looking to prepare in advance, you can do everything up to this point and cover the roasting dishes and refrigerate until you're ready to roast the chicken.

Roast, uncovered, until the tops of the chicken pieces are browned and the chicken is cooked through, and the juices run clear, about 35 to 40 minutes. If a single layer of thin chicken strips are used, much less time is needed.



Serving Size: Makes approximately 8 4-ounce servings, then add 2 plums on top for each serving
