Chicken skewers with apricots

Skewers of chicken fillet and apricots on skewers - a vivid illustration of the perfect combination of chicken and fruit in one dish! Ripe apricots perfectly complement the pieces of chicken meat, which we pre-marinate in mayonnaise and soy sauce, which will help make them juicy and tender. We will cook such skewers on skewers in the oven, so the dish is not only tasty and spectacular in serving, but also healthy!

Ingredients

• Chicken fillet - 500 g (2 pcs.)
• Apricots - 400 g
• Mayonnaise - 50 g
• Sunflower oil - 1 tbsp. a spoon
• Soy sauce - 1 tbsp. a spoon
• Salt - to taste
• Ground black pepper - to taste

Directions

1. Prepare the necessary ingredients.
2. Take large apricots, ripe, but with dense pulp and an easily separated stone.
3. Place the wooden skewers in a suitable bowl and cover with cold water. Leave for 20 minutes. Then the skewers will not burn during cooking.
4. Rinse the chicken fillet, pat dry with a paper towel and cut into pieces of small, approximately the same size.
5. Transfer the chopped chicken to a bowl.
6. Add mayonnaise, sunflower oil and soy sauce. Add ground black pepper and some salt.
7. Stir and refrigerate the bowl for 30 minutes to marinate the chicken meat.
8. Turn on the oven to preheat to 200 degrees.
9. Wash the apricots, pat dry, cut in half and remove the pits. Then cut each apricot half in half again.
10. Thread chicken pieces onto wooden skewers, alternating them with apricot slices. I got 8 skewers.
11. Arrange the skewers on the skewers on a baking sheet or place them in a baking dish. I like to put them in a form so that the skewers do not touch its bottom, but with skewers hold on to the sides. So during baking, the juice will drain into the mold, and the skewers will be fried, and not languish in the liquid.
12. Bake the skewers in an oven preheated to 200 degrees for 30-35 minutes.
13. Chicken and apricot skewers are ready!
14. Serve these skewers hot.
15. Enjoy your meal!
