Sweet and fruity with just the right "zing"! Another one of John’s "spur of the moment" recipes. :)

Blue Ribbon Recipe

This chicken dish is sweet, spicy, and full of flavor. We really loved the addition of apples, and think this would be terrific served alongside some wild rice for a special dinner. Enjoy!
