This is so tasty and it’s from Cooking Light with only 294 calories! You must use chicken thighs when making this and not the breast as it is the most tender part of the chicken. It also suggest to use pork in replacement too. I used 100% whole grain bread extra thin for a more healthy dish. Don’t skip the pickles it is a really nice crunchy addition and the flavors incorporate really good together.

Beer Note: Apricots are a popular fruit among brewers of beer, and for very good reason. Their distinctive fruity flavor is especially refreshing with grilled, spicy, and barbecue-style dishes. Magic Hat #9 from Vermont ($8/6-pack) has more subtle apricot notes, finishing crisp and dry. —Jeffery Lindenmuth
