SPICY MARMALADE GLAZED CHICKEN



Spicy Marmalade Glazed Chicken image

Sweet. Spicy. Good. From About.com recipe section. I have changed a few things. The amounts for the marinade are doubled from the original, because it called for the chicken to be marinated and then after marinating the raw chicken in it, they called for you to use it again. Which grosses me out because of the bacteria, even though it called for you to boil it! So, I make double the marinade and use the second half to serve with the cooked chicken. Prep time includes the cooling and marinating time.
