Sweet ’n’ Spicy Apricot Trout

• Heat a drizzle of oil in a small pot over medium-high heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. • Stir in rice, 1 ¼ cups water (2 ¼ cups for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.  • Keep covered off heat until ready to use in Step 6.

• Meanwhile, toss broccoli on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. • Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 15-20 minutes.

• While broccoli roasts, pat chicken* dry with paper towels. Season all over with salt and pepper. • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned and cooked through, 5-7 minutes per side. TIP: If chicken cutlets are on the thicker side, reduce heat to medium and cover; cook 7-9 minutes on second side. • Transfer chicken to a cutting board to rest.

• Add jam, ponzu, Sriracha, and ¼ cup water (⅓ cup for 4 servings) to same pan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring, until thickened, 1-3 minutes. TIP: If sauce seems too thick, stir in more water 1 tsp at a time. • Turn off heat and stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
