Cut each fillet into 4 pieces. Mix the verjuice with the olive oil and some seasoning, and add the chicken and apricots.
Leave to marinate for about 20 minutes.
Wrap the chicken in bits of pancetta and thread onto skewers.

Serve on fresh bay leaves, if you have them. If not, use rocket.
They’re good as a substantial snack, along with a glass of draft beer.
