Ensure the spices are evenly distributed on both sides.<\/li>\n<li>In a large oven-safe skillet or frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.<\/li>\n<li>Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts to the pan. Sear them for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4 id=\"step-2-create-the-dried-fruit-mix\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Create_the_Dried_Fruit_Mix\"><\/span>Step 2: Create the Dried Fruit Mix<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li>In the same skillet, add the dried apricots, raisins, and dried cranberries.

Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4 id=\"step-4-prepare-the-almond-crunch\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_4_Prepare_the_Almond_Crunch\"><\/span>Step 4: Prepare the Almond Crunch<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li>While the chicken is baking, prepare the almond crunch. In a small pan over medium heat, melt the butter.<\/li>\n<li>Add the sliced almonds to the melted butter, stirring continually until they are lightly toasted. This should take about 2-3 minutes.<\/li>\n<li>Add the honey and a pinch of salt to the almonds. Stir well to coat the almonds evenly, then remove from heat.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4 id=\"step-5-bringing-it-all-together\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_5_Bringing_It_All_Together\"><\/span>Step 5: Bringing It All Together<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li>Once the chicken is done baking, remove the skillet from the oven.
