Ingredients:
- 1/4 cups - sliced almonds
- 1 - medium onion sliced
- 1 stalks - celery sliced
- 1 - carrot sliced
- 1 sprigs - parsley
- 1 teaspoons - salt
- 1/2 teaspoons - pepper
- 1 teaspoons - dried rosemary leaves
- 1 - small bay leaf
- 1 cans - 10.75 oz. condensed chicken broth (undiluted)
- 1 cups - water
- 4 whole - chicken breasts (12 oz. size) halved
- 1/3 cups - honey
- - green grapes optional
- - watercress optional
Directions:
Two Days Ahead:
Arrange sliced almonds in a single-layer in a shallow baking pan. Broil 1 minute or until almonds are golden brown. Watch carefully. Almonds burn very quickly; you may have to stir several times. Cool; transfer to a covered container for later use.
One Day Ahead:
In a 6-quart kettle, combine onion, celery, carrot, parsley, salt, pepper, rosemary, bay leaf, undiluted chicken broth and water. Bring mixture to a boil; add the chicken breasts and cover. Simmer 30 minutes or until chicken is tender.
Remove kettle from heat and let chicken mixture cool at room temperature. Place in refrigerator and chill overnight.
Next Day:
Remove kettle from refrigerator and place over low heat. Cook until chicken is heated through (about 10 minutes. Remove chicken from broth; place skin side up in a large, shallow baking pan.
Spoon 1 cup chicken broth into the pan. Strain remaining broth; discard vegetables and save broth for use in other recipes for soups or stews.
Using a pastry brush, brush chicken with half of the honey. Broil, 4 inches from heat source, for 2 minutes. Brush again with honey and broil 1 to 2 minutes longer. Brush with more honey and broil until chicken is glazed and golden brown.
Remove chicken from broiler and arrange the honey-glazed breasts on a heated platter. Sprinkle with sliced almonds and garnish, if desired, with green grapes and crisp watercress.
Serve immediately.
