Tasty and interesting combination of ingredients. I doubled the sauce ingredients (tomatoes, apricots, and spices), added 1/2 cup of water and let the chicken braise for 30 minutes which definitely infused the chicken with the spice savory flavor. Didn't have almonds on hand, so used cashews. Will make this again.
