Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F and line a 9" by 13" pan with aluminum foil. Arrange the chicken pieces in the pan so that they are not touching.

- Bake the chicken for 40 minutes.
- While the chicken is baking, add the plum jam to the mixture in the saucepan and whisk to combine over low heat, until thoroughly combined.
- Remove chicken from oven and baste with about half of the jam mixture. Return to oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a wok or large frying pan until very hot.
- Whilst the oil is heating, place chicken in a bowl and sprinkle on the cornflour. Mix together with a fork or your hands until the chicken is coated.
- Now break the egg into the bowl with the chicken, and use a fork to mix everything together thoroughly. There should be no egg pooling at the bottom of the bowl. If there is, discard it.
- Next, sprinkle on the flour, followed by salt, pepper, garlic salt and paprika. Mix everything together with your hands. The chicken should be well-coated, but will also be sticky.
- Add the chicken to the wok and cook on a high heat for 6-7 minutes, turning two or three times during cooking, until well browned. You may need to cook in two batches (I find I can do it in one batch so long as there are no more than 3 chicken breasts).
- Once golden brown, add the plum slices, peppers and garlic. Cook, with the chicken for 2 minutes, stirring often, until the plum starts to soften.
- Now add all of the sauce ingredients to the wok, stir and bubble on a high heat until the sauce reduces by about a third (should take 2-3 minutes).
- Turn off the heat and divide between four bowls. Serve with boiled rice and top with spring onions and chilli flakes.

- Return the chicken to the skillet and pour over the sauce. Stir everything together and cook until the sauce is very thick, 1 to 2 minutes. Add a little water if needed to make it more saucy.

CHILI PLUM STIR FRY CHICKEN
This is a combination of two recipes from taste.com.au that the DH and I combined to come up with something we both really like. The night we made it we had several dishes on the go and I was prepping for them as well so times are estimated to if you were only cooking this dish UPDATE - o'kay making this once again I have added other vegies tonight which were some julienned carrot, broccoli and cauliflower flowerettes and snow peas and served on top of some hokien noodles - just a variation. ANOTHER UPDATE - we tried this tonight Have now tried with beef, rump strips (possibly could be better to beat out and cut into strips though we think. depending on the quality of your rump) and added 3/4 teaspoons chinese five spice to step 2 but would suggest 1/2 teaspoon) but still thoroughly enjoyed and we are smacking our lips still 2 hours later.
