4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 teaspoons Dark Sesame Oil
3 Cloves Garlic; peeled and minced

Directions

In a large nonstick frying pan over medium heat, heat the oil. Add the garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add chicken and saute until browned and no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes.

Add the sesame seeds and saute, stirring frequently, until browned, about 2 minutes. Add the apricots, water, apricot preserves, soy sauce, mustard and ginger and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the snow peas and simmer until tender-crisp, about 5 minutes more.
