Glazed Apricot Chicken Thighs

Original recipe for these apricot chicken thighs was for the microwave. I've adjusted it for a conventional oven but included directions for the microwave. So easy and tasty, yet low in calories!

Ingredients

• ½ teaspoon ground ginger
• ⅓ cup apricot preserves
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon dry sherry
• 2 ½ pounds skinless chicken thighs
• 1 teaspoon minced green onion (Optional)

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Arrange chicken thighs in an 8x12-inch baking dish.

Step 2

Combine apricot preserves, soy sauce, sherry, garlic, and ginger in a small bowl. Brush mixture over the thighs.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven, basting chicken with the preserve mixture 3 to 4 times, until juices run clear, 30 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thighs should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Step 4

Sprinkle green onions over thighs.
