Sounds really good PF. I just bought a new jar of Marmalade too. I think I'll marinate them overnight?

I just got some marmalade too!

These sound different. In a good way.
I'm always looking for a new sauce to try. I think I'll give them a go.

Sounds interesting, although the orange marmalade I have tastes really bitter to me. I also have some of Penzey's Raspberry Enlightenment. I might try that with this.

 

[Dawgluver]

Horseradish is really good with marmalade as a shrimp dipping sauce, bet it would make for some great wings too, along with the rest of the recipe.

 

[PrincessFiona60]

It was spectacular! Enjoy!

 

[Dawgluver]

I think I'll try this with breast strips. DH and I were just talking about what a good dip the marmalade/horseradish made, and what, other than shrimp, might also be good with it. I said I thought chicken too!

 

[PrincessFiona60]

Sounds like several off us had the same ideas with marmalade. I also have some Apricot Habañero Preserves I want to try in a chicken glaze.

Oh, that sounds yummy!

Stirling and I find all marmalade tastes bitter. We never buy it.

Canadian marmalade tastes bitter to me too, but Smuckers is the only kind we get in our area, it's sweet. BTW, I wish we could get the good, bitter Canadian stuff here!

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who finds marmalade bitter. I'd probably substitute apricot.

Looks great! After you remove the chicken, I would put the marinade in a sauce pan, bring it to a boil, then simmer and reduce to thicken. Yum, a sauce to drizzle over.

 

[pacanis]

I plan on reserving some in case I want to add some as a finishing sauce after grilling, as grilling can tend to lose a sauce's intensity. But I do plan on basting throughout the cooking process anyway.
I like my sauces

I have several jars of OM on hand. I will try this recipe next. Less ingredients to work with than the usual OM sriracha hot wings I normally do with sugar and honey.

Yeah, the "good" British stuff is even worse.

I wonder what it would be like if I strained out the orange peel. We have a jar of Robertson's Original Orange Marmalade. I don't remember how it got here. Nah, I should just give it to a food bank.

I love bitter marmalade...you could try honey mixed with orange juice.

 

[Cheryl J]

I love the bitterness of orange marmalade, too. In fact, that reminds me, I just used the last of my jar of King Kelly. Must add it to the shopping list.

Some time ago, Janet H made a great list for marmalade uses, and I copied it off. I'm adding yours to the list Dawg, as horseradish seems a good pairing for shrimp or chicken.
Orange Marmalade - Wondrous stuff
I LOVE orange marmalade. There are many brands ranging from sweet and smooth to bitter and snappy and you can make your own of course but my go to staple is Made by King Kelly. It's cheap, has loads of peel and awesome flavor!

Beyond the obvious punchy topping for toasted muffins and bagels it's a miracle ingredient. Fast, fun and zesty.
