Chicken in Marmalade “Chutney”

Whenever I'm at a loss for ideas, I turn to Cookpad for inspiration, and it usually comes to the rescue! As it did last night.
See, last night I had some nice chicken, some cous cous... and a pretty empty fridge and pantry (since today is grocery shopping day)! So, how to serve it?
Here on Cookpad, I came across Passi Vikshali's mango chutney recipe (https://cookpad.wasmer.app/us/recipes/13258685-raw-mango-chutney) and it gave me an idea. I had no mango and only some of the ingredients in her list, but no matter... It was the spark that ignited this unusual marmalade "chutney" made with balsamic vinegar and Korean red chili paste.
For an experiment, it was quite successful! It was gone in minutes.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
In a medium bowl, combine marmalade, red chili paste, vinegar, salt and pepper and whisk until you have a nice "chutney" style marinade. Place the chicken strips in it and let it rest in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
- 2
Heat up some oil in a pan over medium heat. Add chicken and the "chutney", cook covered for three minutes. Then remove the cover and keep cooking until done (some five more minutes for a total of eight).
- 3
Serve with your choice of side. We had some nice cous cous with pistacchio, so we used that. But rice works perfectly with this as well!

TIP: I would recommend using homemade marmalade for this, as it is usually runnier, but if you use storebought, water it down with 1-2 tsp water to make the marinade.

Chicken Wings Simmered in Marmalade Chicken Wings Simmered in Marmalade
I basically wrote down the Christmas chicken dish in our house so I could remember it. I really recommend the yuzu marmalade! If you have some fresh yuzu too, squeeze a little juice over the chicken to finish.You can make this with the mid-section of the wing or with pork spareribs.I used homemade Yuzu Marmaladebut you can use any kind of citrus preserves. If you would like it spicy, add black pepper at Step 5. The flavor is on the sweet side to please adjust the amount of marmalade to your taste. Recipe by cafe-cafe cookpad.japan -

Lemon Marmalade Lemon Marmalade
I am trying to grow lemon trees at my house. I love lemons, and other citrus. So I am looking ahead to make recipes with lemons. Sweet, tart, and a tiny bit bitter in a good way. Be sure to get all the pith you can off the fruit and maybe use it as fertilizer or compost. Just don't use it in the recipe. It will turn super bitter. This is for just about all citrus. skunkmonkey101 -

Onion Chutney Onion Chutney
This requested recipe of thick sauce is usually served with variety of dishes such as Indian curry, naan and paratha breads, samosa, and rice.I made this for some guests to serve it with cheese and crackers.Sterilize a jar in boiling water. Fill the jar while the chutney is still hot and close the lid. Turn the jar upside down and keep it in a cool place. This creates vacuum state, and it can be preserved for few months.A slightly sweeter taste is recommended, so add some sugar. Honey could be fine too. Recipe by Plabar cookpad.japan -
