Glazed Chicken and Carrots

By: Helen Bekert 
"Apple juice lends a subtle sweetness to chicken that's nicely coated with dill and tossed with carrots and celery in this pretty stir-fry. 'I've served it on busy nights when time is short and at family buffets, too,' says Helen Bekert of Sprakers, New York. 'Everyone is sure I've spent hours in the kitchen.'"
