Steps:

• Marinate the apricots and sultanas in the white wine overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet and saute the chicken pieces over medium heat until brown on all sides. Drain on a paper towel. Add the shallots, green pepper and garlic to the pan and saute for 10 minutes.
• Place the chicken legs and thighs, along with the sauteed vegetables, in a large ovenproof dish. Add the apricots and sultanas with the wine, the lemon peel and coriander. Add the chicken broth. Season with the peppercorns and salt. Bake, uncovered, for 25 minutes.
• Add the breasts and wings and, if necessary, some additional chicken broth. Bake until the breasts are tender, about 20 minutes. (This dish can be prepared one day in advance up to this point.)
• Just before serving, if a thicker sauce is desired, combine one-half cup of the cooking liquid with the cornstarch and stir into the dish. Sprinkle with cilantro, almonds and coconut and heat through until the coconut is golden brown, 10 to 20 minutes.

CHICKEN NORMANDY (ESCALOPE DE POULET A LA NORMANDE)

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Pan-sear chicken breasts in the hot oil until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove chicken breasts from the skillet.
• Add drained mushrooms to the pan juices in the skillet and cook until they start to pop, about 5 minutes.
• Whisk together cream, egg yolk, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a small bowl; pour into the skillet with the mushrooms. Return chicken breasts to the skillet and simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent the egg yolk from setting, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the chicken breast should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Serve with cooked white rice.
