The ingredient s in the marinade made my husband turn his nose up, but when he tasted it he was very surprised! A spicy, strawberry chicken was for supper this evening and I was even surprised at how well my latest recipe turned out. It is a spicy dish, but doesn’t burn your mouth. The meal is a sweet and spicy chicken leaving you wishing for more.
The marinade was very easy to make. Two heaping tablespoons of strawberry jelly, a diced jalapeño, and Worcestershire sauce. Put enough Worcestershire sauce in to make the marinade just a tad runny. On the chicken add a dash of cayenne pepper and garlic to both sides. I put the marinade on the chicken for about an hour, but next I will do it a little longer.
I cooked the chicken on medium high and browned both sides (about 4 minutes each). Don’t forget to add the left over marinade from the bottom of the dish. Then, I added about ½ a bag of sliced, frozen strawberries. Next, I drained a can of zesty, diced tomatoes and then added the tomatoes to the pan. Finally, I added garlic and crushed red peppers. I covered the pan and cooked it for about 15-20 more minutes. The chicken had to be turned a few times so it didn’t stick.
The dish turned out great. I can’t wait to eat my leftovers tomorrow!
Happy cooking.
