INSTRUCTIONS
* Obviously the recipe recommends using Near East Pilaf mix, but any
packaged mix will do.
Toss chicken with paprika, cinnamon and cardamom. In large nonstick
skillet, heat 2 Tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken, cook 5
minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from skillet, set aside. In same
skillet, heat remaining 1 Tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add onion; cook
8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in rice pilaf mix, contents of Spice
Sack, broth, apricots, and orange zest; bring to a boil. Cover; reduce heat
to low. Simmer 15 minutes. Stir in reserved chicken and almonds. Cover;
continue to simmer 5 to 10 minutes or until liquid is absorbed.
