1 cup peach wine or peach nectar
1/2 cup apricot preserves
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1 9 ounce pk fresh angel hair pasta

Add chicken and stir-fry until meat is white throughout, but still juicy, 3-4 minutes.
Remove to a plate. In the same wok, heat remaining 1 1/2 Tbsp. oil over High heat. Add snow peas, bell pepper, green onions, garlic, salt and pepper. Stir-fry until vegetables are crisp-tender, 2-3 minutes.
Add chicken and pasta. Mix in reserved mustard-fruit sauce. Cook, tossing, until heated through, 1-2 minutes.
