Cook chicken in a delicious sauce made from fresh ginger and plums. Frozen apple juice adds to the sweetness of the plums and brings in an added fall flavor. We created this sweet dish to welcome in the Jewish New Year. It's easy enough, though, to be enjoyed any time of year. This recipe can be doubled or tripled for larger gatherings. Leftovers will keep in the refrigerator for about 5 days so you can also double this recipe to have for lunches the next week. Serve it with a fresh salad and sautéed potatoes.
