Sweet & Sour Ham over Rice


Ingredients:
One 16-oz. can (2 cups) apricot halves in syrup 1.5 lbs. fully cooked ham, cut into strips (3 cups or so) 2 green peppers (I use red or orange), cut into 1 inch pieces 1 cup chicken broth 1/3 cup sugar 1/4 cup white vinegar 3 Tbsp. butter/margarine 3 Tbsp. soy sauce 4 Tbsp. cornstarch 2.5 cups packaged precooked rice
Directions:
Cook the rice and set aside. Drain apricots, reserving the syrup. In a large saucepan, combine apricot syrup, ham, green peppers, 3/4 cup of the chicken broth, sugar, vinegar, butter and soy sauce. Bring to boiling; cover & simmer 10 minutes. Blend cornstarch and remaining broth (not hot) and add to ham mix. Cook and stir until boiling; boil for 2 minutes. Add apricots and remove from heat. Spoon over hot rice. Serves 6. Enjoy! -Diana
