Ginger & Marmalade Plum Good Chicken (crock Pot)

Total Time: 5 hrs 5 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 5 hrs

Ingredients

  • Servings: 2
  • 4 pieces chicken (your choice on cut & skin)
  • 2 -3 tablespoons fresh grated gingerroot (you really won't get the same flavor from ground)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh minced garlic (2-3 cloves)
  • 1/2 cup plum jelly (mine was spiced plum)
  • 1/2 cup orange marmalade
  • 1/2 cup fresh orange juice (or from concentrate, diluted or not)
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon asian seasoning (i used "emeril's asian essence")
  • 2 teaspoons wasabi mustard dipping sauce

Recipe

  • 1 put chicken in crock pot (mine had skin on, and while it absorbed the flavor nicely, it also really added a lot of fat to the sauce, so you decide).
  • 2 add all the other ingredients to chicken.
  • 3 if you're home, turn the chicken a few times, if not it'll do just fine.
  • 4 cook on high approximately 5-6 hrs or until done.
  • 5 serve with rice (top with some of the sauce) & a vegetable of choice.
  • 6 *note, if you're unfamiliar with using fresh ginger, it kind of looks like an iris flower tuber/root. pick a nice firm one, it lasts a bit in the fridge & is nice to have on hand. use a potato peeler to peel skin from area to be grated, i use a bamboo ginger grater, but a regular grater works too. grate the amount to be used, (firmly tap grater against container to get ginger out of grates), & store the remaining ginger in a bag in fridge. you may notice where you grate, leaves "hairy" fibers on the tuber, which is fine, or is easily cut off. enjoy ginger, it makes most things better, & is said to help with digestive disturbances/nausea.
