1. Heat the oil in a small non-stick pan, then cook the onion and garlic for 5 mins until soft. Stir in the apricots, sultanas, ginger, orange juice and vinegar, then bubble gently for 10-15 mins until the apricots become pulpy and most of the liquid has been absorbed.
2. Stir in the sugar and cook for 2 more mins until the chutney is sticky, then season and cool. Transport to the picnic in a small jar or pot with lid.

Forget the gravy, this summery chutney will bring out the flavours of the chicken and it improves on keeping.

  This really is delicious and incredibly easy to make. I'm not sure about your 5 mins preparation time though although I did make it with freshly squeezed oranges after using the zest for another recipe. I'm putting it into a nice jar then into a home-made hamper as a gift. I'll have to make a batch for myself now.

  Just loved this chutney and served it with the stuffed chicken roll as suggested. No worries about keeping it as it all disappeared but, as per the comments above, that advice would be welcome for the next time as I will make double quantities.

  This seems more like a relish recipe to me and I don't imagine it's one that's going to keep like a chutney would.
