Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until rice is tender. , Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine cornstarch and water until smooth; set aside. In a large nonstick skillet or wok coated with cooking spray, stir-fry chicken in hot oil for 5 minutes or until lightly browned. Stir in the marmalade, apricots, five-spice powder and soy sauce. Bring to a boil. , Stir cornstarch mixture and stir into chicken mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with rice.

Steps:

• With food processor running, put ginger, orange rind and lemon rind through feed tube, and chop fine.
• Add the orange juice, apricot preserves and mustard, and process to mix well.
• Wash and dry chicken breasts, and place in small bowl; pour orange mixture over chicken, and marinate until it is time to cook the chicken.
• Peel the oranges, and cut into small segments. Heat oil in nonstick skillet; brown chicken on both sides; add marinade mixture and orange pieces, simmer briskly until chicken is cooked through and marinade has been slightly reduced.

Steps:

• Put 1/3 cup olive oil, the garlic, 1 tablespoon marjoram, the lemon zest and juice, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a mini food processor and pulse to make a paste. Loosen the chicken skin with your fingers. Rub the paste under and over the skin and inside the cavity. Put the chicken on a rimmed baking sheet and refrigerate, uncovered, at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Make the stuffing: Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the red onion, celery and dried apricots and cook, stirring, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the bread and parsley and cook, stirring, until combined, about 2 minutes. Add the broth, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Transfer to a bowl and let cool completely.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Fill the chicken cavity with the stuffing, tie the legs together with twine and put breast-side up on a rack in a roasting pan; tuck the wings underneath. Roast until the skin begins to brown, about 30 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and continue roasting until deep golden brown, about 1 more hour. (Cover loosely with foil if it's browning too quickly.)
• Whisk the preserves and vinegar in a small bowl; brush on the chicken and continue roasting until the skin is crisp and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165 degrees F, about 20 more minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before carving. Garnish with marjoram sprigs.

Steps:

• Adjust an oven rack to the upper position and heat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Coat 9 by 13-inch baking dish lightly with vegetable oil spray.

• Lay the chicken in prepared 9 by 13-inch baking dish.
• Whisk the apricot preserves, dried apricot pieces, and orange juce into the saucepan with the honey, vinegar, soy sauce, curry powder, and Tabasco sauce, over medium-high heat.
• Simmer, whisking often, until the mixture has thickened, about 8 minutes.
• Quickly dissolve the cornstarch in the water, then whisk into the honey mixture.
• Pour the apricot-orange sauce over the chicken, then sprinkle with the almonds.
• Bake until the chicken registers 160 degrees on an instant-read thermometer, 15-18 minutes.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the salsa, preserves and orange juice. In a 1-1/2-qt. slow cooker coated with cooking spray, layer 1/3 cup salsa mixture and a chicken breast. Repeat layers. Top with remaining salsa mixture. , Cover and cook on low until chicken is tender, 2-1/2 to 3 hours. If desired, thicken pan juices. Serve with rice.

• Toss well.
• Drizzle the chicken broth over all to moisten as desired; adjusting the seasonings.
• For stuffing, cool completely then stuff the turkey.
• For dressing, bake for 45 minutes covered with foil.
• Remove foil and continue to bake for an additional 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Place chicken in a greased 3-qt. slow cooker. Top with soup. In a bowl, combine the water, butter and stuffing mix; spoon over the chicken. Cover and cook on low for 4 hours or until chicken is tender.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place chicken in a baking dish, skin side up, and season with salt, pepper and ginger.
• Spread marmalade over chicken; pour both juices in the pan.
• Bake 20 minutes.
• Remove from oven and add apricots, distributing evenly.
• Sprinkle with brown sugar and return to oven, basting occasionally, for 40 minutes.
• Serve immediate with some of the pan juices.

Steps:

• Rinse and then pat dry two whole chicken breasts, preferably on the bone, skin attached.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste, including under the skin, and in the natural split in the meat. This is where the stuffing will go.
• Set aside in refrigerator while preparing the stuffing.
• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Sauté diced vegetables for stuffing in enough vegetable oil to coat the pan.
• Start with the onion, then add the mushrooms, celery, adding the herbs last, until all the vegetables are soft and aromatic.
• Add sauté to cubes of bread in a bowl off of the heat, mixing together.
• Add hot stock (veggie stock is fine, here too) a little at a time, making sure the bread soaks it up.
• Add one lightly scrambled egg to the mixture.
• Take out your chicken a prepare to stuff! Use your fingers to open the split further, and start filling it in with stuffing, until just a bit is mounding out of the chicken. The moisture of the stuffing will help to keep in it place.
• You may use cotton kitchen string to keep skin and stuffing all in place, or toothpicks.
• Heat a large sauté pan to medium high, with enough oil to coat the pan(I use the same pan I sauté the vegetables in).
• Add the breasts skin side down until the skin is turning golden.
• While chicken is in pan, mix apricot jam with water, heating in microwave to soften, approximately one minute.
• Turn breasts in pan over and sear for five minutes.
• Turning off heat on stove top, coat the chicken, skin side up, with the apricot glaze, and letting any excess pour into pan.
• Place in the oven until done, about fifteen more minutes. Using a meat thermometer, the chicken should be at about 175 - 180°F.
• If serving several courses, these breasts can be served in halves. It's quite a bit of meat, and looks nice cut crosswise, showing the stuffing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place the chicken pieces in a 4 quart casserole dish. Mix the soup mix, dressing and jam together, and pour over the chicken.
• Cover dish and bake for 1 hour in preheated oven.
