Raspberry Jam Chicken

[pilates]

I was disappointed with this.

The sauce was thin and watery.

What did I do wrong?

The sauce was thin and watery

That's the least of the problems with chicken and raspberry jam.

Why would anyone even think of using raspberry jam on chicken? What are they? Barbarians?

Was it from the Rachel Green cookbook?!

You were deceived by a recipe that included hot raspberry jam & chicken...?

Sorry… I don’t think I’m your target poster… but sounds gross and surely very sweet, Why would you attempt it? 🤮

OP, this does not sound tasty. Do you have a link to the recipe - maybe someone can find out where you went wrong.

It’s so disappointing when a recipe fails. But this one might not have had much possibility to begin with

Did you do a Rachel Green and stick two pages of the recipe book together?

You might think raspberry jam and chicken is a good idea, littlebilly, but you would be wrong.

That's the mumsnet recipe
Never tried it though

WTF? Jam and chicken?!

I enjoyed raspberry jam and gherkin sandwiches whilst pregnant, but that's not at all normal...

It’s a MN top banana recipe.

The ad keeps coming up and it looked nice on the video.

It was jam, red wine vinegar, garlic and soy sauce

It’s a trifle. It’s got all these layers. First there’s a layer of ladyfingers, then jam.Then custard (which I made from scratch), then raspberries, more ladyfingers...then beefsautéedwith peas and onions, then a little bit more custard,then bananas and then I put whipped cream on top.

Yes OP - a recipe for that kept appearing in an ad on Mumsnet.

I thought it was some sort of test! (Your common sense tells you one thing... the ad suggests another.)

It wasn't clear how they would get the results though.

Bobotie? kitchengatherings.com/bobotie/

It's not a recipe I would try but lots of people mix fruit and meat .

Orange and duck
Apple and pork
Cranberry and Turkey

There are probably many more too

I don’t think I am shitfaced on half a bottle of red but this thread is making me question everything… Jam? And chicken?! Oh.

Nooo, @nocoolnamesleft. Try again.

It's ok, OP, we'll be there for you.

Ah I actually have the MN cookbook, and there are some decent recipes in there (esp like the slow cooker section), but for some reason… this is one I’ve not ever tried, I wonder why? 🤮

I have no issue combining fruit and meat. It can be delicious. I did a lovely chicken, grape and cinzano dish once.

It's just the "jam" part I'm struggling with!

@pilates

It was jam, red wine vinegar, garlic and soy sauce

I might put honey or dark brown sugar with red wine vinegar, soy sauce and garlic but would need some other added ingredients to make a marinade not really a sauce.

@DropYourSword

um grape and chicken ? each to there own I guess

@NewYearCalavicci I'll admit it sounds odd, but it was really tasty!
(I didn't make the recipe up, just followed from a cookbook)

Yuck

We had it this week. It was…..ok. As the children ate it they enquired about the possibility of my buying a jar of chicken tonight next week. I won’t rush to make it again.
