  1. Excellent, I made my own pineapple perseve and add brown sugar and it was amazing.
     
  2. I used Dijon mustard and a bit more cornstarch, and everyone raved about this chicken! I didn't have orange marmalade, but I found some apricot/pineapple preserves in the fridge and used that. Great recipe, thanks Scandigirl!
     
  3. This was very nice. My husband requested a repeat. :)
