- 3 T olive oil
- 2 T white wine vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1-1/2 t fresh rosemary

In a large bowl, blend together wine or broth, lemon juice, olive oil, vinegar, garlic, herbs and lemon zest. Divide in half and place in 2 large plastic zipper bags. Cut each chicken breast lengthwise into 4 strips to make a total of 16 strips. Place chicken in one plastic zipper bag and apricots in the other. Seal and refrigerate for 24 hours, turning occasionally. Drain chicken and apricots; discard marinade. Sprinkle salt on chicken. Thread 8 skewers in the following order: one pepper, one onion, one chicken strip in a loosely wrapped “s” fashion around 2 apricot halves. Repeat, ending up with one pepper and one onion. Grill or broil, 5 inches from heat, for 8 minutes or until chicken is cooked through, turning every 2 to 3 minutes. Makes 4 servings.
