Boneless skinless chicken thighs can be hard to find in some supermarkets or grocery store. If your local store doesn’t carry them you can use chicken breasts instead. Mixed dried fruit gives this chicken a wonderful taste. If you have a favorite dried fruit such as apricots or pineapple it may be used instead.
