Apricot Chicken Provencal
"Delicious French-inspired chicken dish that features herbes de Provence and an apricot sauce. My ingredient amounts are estimated, particularly with the herbes de Provence. I made up this dish on the fly, and I generally cook based on smell and taste rather than strict measurements. It is important to note that using too much herbs de Provence may make the dish smell or taste too much like fancy soap, due to the lavender in herbs de Provence. Use your best judgment based on your personal tastes. Enjoy!"
