Note
- For bone-in chicken breat, cook chicken for 50 minutes or until no pink remains in chicken and juices run clear.
- The juices and seeds of fresh jalapeno peppers can burn your eyes and hands, so be sure to wear some type of protective gloves when handling them, and keep them away from your eyes. If you like it spicy, throw in the whole seeded and minced jalapeno!

I made this tonight with boneless, skinless chicken thighs. I used apricot preserves and diced jalapenos from a jar. It was simply delicious, although I did bake, uncovered, for an hour. Highly recommended!

Made the chicken/jalapeno recipe and even my picky granddaughters enjoyed it!!! But, I listened to your video numerous times along with my son...the baking time on the video proved to be 50 minutes, not 15-20. With this adjustment, it was perfect.

Tried this chicken recipe last night and it was great and so easy to prepare. I also used the Jalapeno's in a jar.

This was very good. I used apricot preserves, no peach available and used jarred jalapeno peppers. Would also use on a variety of other proteins.

I'm kinda curious to see if you could use jalapenos in a jar- would seem like it would save the trouble of having to be careful, wouldn't it? (Also, looks like I got a dinner idea! Sounds delicious- come back to NYC, Mr. Food! Come back! :))
