Ingredients

• 3/4 cup dried apricots, chopped

• 3/4 cup pitted prunes, chopped
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard
• 1/2 cup orange juice
• 1/2 cup cider vinegar
• 1 4-lb. chicken, cut into 8 pieces
• Salt and pepper

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 375°F. In a small saucepan, combine fruit, mustard, juice and vinegar. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture is thick, about 5 minutes.

2. Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with foil; mist with cooking spray. Season chicken with salt and pepper and place in pan. Pour fruit mixture over and around chicken. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh reads 165°F, about 1 hour. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
