This Southern Apricot Chicken recipe is one of my go to weeknight dinners because it comes together in minutes with just a handful of ingredients. The apricot preserves give you that sweet and tangy flavor that feels fancy, but honestly, it's so simple anyone can make it. Sour cream keeps the chicken incredibly moist and tender while adding a lovely richness to the sauce. Plus, apricots are packed with vitamin A which is wonderful for your skin and eyes. It's comfort food that doesn't require any fussing around, and your family will think you spent hours in the kitchen.
