Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Bring rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown chicken breasts on both sides, about 2 minutes per side.
Combine apricot jam, Italian-style salad dressing, and dried onions together in a bowl.
Place browned chicken in a baking dish and pour jam mixture over the chicken; bake for 15 minutes.
Add the pineapple, chopped onion and chopped red bell pepper; continue baking until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside, another 15 minutes.

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!
