Ingredients

0.3333 cup sugar
0 1/2 tsp fresh lemon peel
1 each cinnamon sticks
1 cup cold water
24 each dried apricots
2 oz bittersweet chocolate
1 tbsp pistachios

Directions

Line a baking sheet with wax paper and place a wire rack on top.
Combine sugar, lemon zest, cinnamon stick and water in a small saucepan, bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 3 minutes.
Add apricots and gently simmer just until tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the apricots with a slotted spoon to the rack. Let cool completely.
Melt chocolate in a small metal bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water.
Dip half of a poached apricot in the chocolate, letting excess drip off.
Sprinkle some chopped pistachios over the chocolate half and return the apricot to the rack. Repeat with the remaining apricots.
