This was definitely not what I expected! So when I got over it (haha) I realized I had a five star dish in front of me. It has a mild flavor, and is reminiscent of a meat dish with a sweet(ish) chutney. I think it would be great with mashed potatoes, and a green veggie with a sprinkling of balsalmic vinegar.

I only had regular red pepper relish and it turned out so well, the flavour was great. The next time I will use a hotter jelly, it should be terrific.

A delicious chicken entree, quick & easy to prepare, a wee bit spicy & a wee bit sweet! I used Hot Red Pepper Jelly (#58516) by JellyQueen & a good quality balsamic, served with Kittencal's Roasted Honey Dijon Potatoes (#81989) and tinned corn. Thanx Carol!

I have had this in my cookbook since I bought a jar of pepper jelly quite a while ago. This is one of those "wow" dishes and like Ginny says, not at all what I we were expecting. It's quick enough for a mid week meal, classy enough for guests, I reckon it could be served at a wedding. I used a red wine vinegar that I stock up on when I visit a particular vineyard in South Australia every couple of years. Definately worth the splurge of using a great vinegar. I reduced the sauce until it was a sticky glaze and there was about 2 tablespoons each for us to go over our chicken.

Very easy to make. Good comments made by all family members. Added 1tsp flour to thicken sauce. Served with mash potatoes & salad. Will be making this again. Thank you Lorac.

This was excellent - I loved the thick, sticky sauce (although I used a little more pepper jelly than you called for). We get locally made pepper jelly in various flavors from the farmer's market, and it's great to find a use for it that doesn't involve cream cheese and crackers! And the chicken itself was really excellent before I even put the sauce on!

Excellent. I subbed chicken tenders and increased the spices a bit to coat them all. I used about 3 1/2 Tbs of Hot Pepper Jelly #95632 that I canned this fall. The flavor is really full-bodied. The sauce didn't thicken so much as it reduced, so make sure you have something to sop it up! Served with a green salad, garlic-roasted potatoes & crusty whole-grain rolls. I'll definitely make this one again.

I have made this twice now and both times it has been great! I didn't have the jalapeno jelly so I used mild pepper jelly and some hot sauce. I finally found some jalapeno jelly and am def. going to try it with that next time. This is super easy to make and good.

We can pepper jelly every summer and when I saw this recipe, I had to give it a try. What a wonderful sauce--I think this would be good on pork as well, We use different peppers in our jelly--tried the banana pepper jelly this time, but will be using all of our flavors--using a different one each time to find our favorite. Can't wait--thank you.
