  • Cook, stirring often, until softened - approximately 10 minutes.
  • Stir in apples, cook 3-5 minutes. Stir often while cooking.
  • Add brown sugar, jelly, vinegar, lemon juice, apple juice, orange peel and jalapeños.
  • Bring mixture to a low boil, then simmer on medium low heat.

  • Remove from heat.
  • Let cool in bowl.
  • Serve at room temperature or chilled.
Chicken:
  • Meanwhile, combine orange juice, oil, ginger, brown sugar, green onions or scallions, coriander, cinnamon, salt and pepper in a medium sized bowl.
