Instructions
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Season the chicken drumsticks with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Stir in garlic and red pepper flakes; cook and stir until garlic is softened and is fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
Place the drumsticks in the skillet, and brown the chicken on all sides, about 3 minutes on each side.
Transfer the skillet to the oven.
Bake the chicken drumsticks in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 7 to 10 minutes.
Bring the apricot nectar to a boil in a large pot over medium-high eat, then reduce heat to medium-low.
Mix cornstarch and water together in a small bowl; stir cornstarch mixture and curry powder into the apricot nectar.
Transfer the baked drumsticks into the apricot mixture.
Heat the skillet used to cook the chicken over medium heat. Stir in the onion, green bell pepper, carrots, and green chile pepper; cook and stir until the onion has softened.
Pour the drumsticks and apricot sauce into the skillet. Cover and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in water chestnuts just before serving.

Dry Creek Vineyard Dry Chenin Blanc, Wine
This beautiful wine is wonderfully consistent vintage after vintage. We receive superior Chenin Blanc fruit from the Wilson Ranch in Clarksburg, allowing us to produce an expressive, nuanced and delicious wine. At first swirl, aromatics of white pear, pineapple and banana spring forward from the glass. On the palate, the wine is refreshing with flavors of ripe tangerine and peaches. The mouthfeel is lively, but rich and has a subtle creaminess. 100% stainless steel fermentation guarantees the fresh fruit character fans of this wine have come to appreciate over the years. This is the quintessential summer sipper and the perfect wine to pair with fresh oysters!
