I made this recipe this evening with no modifications except I used home canned peach habanero jam instead of marmalade. It was outstanding! Thanks for your ease of use recipes! Always appreciated with the business of life.

In reply to Pam. Yes, I thought it needed a little extra thickening based on the ingredients.

Another quick question and I am ready to try. In the honey sesame chicken recipe you call for 2 Tbl of cornstarch mixed with 3 Tbl water but in this recipe you call for 3 and 3. Do you think this recipe just needed more to thicken based on the ingredients or such?

In reply to Barbara Schieving. Sorry, never mind. I looked it up and google says it is the same thing but not to be confused with rice wine.

In reply to Barbara Schieving. Hmmm interesting. I wonder what would be the difference in cooking marmalade with chicken or adding after. But I bet it causes some of the marmalade to cook down or dissipate, which probably means less sauce. Guess I could try half and half but I have found when I deviate from recipes, is when I mess up.

In reply to Barbara Schieving. Your recipe says rice wine vinegar which instead I just have the product “rice vinegar”. So you are saying I should use the rice vinegar and a rice wine vinegar is not needed or not what I want? Are they the same thing?

In reply to Pam.

Hi Pam – yes, 3 minutes is enough time to pressure cook the chicken. One of the reasons I saute the chicken in the Honey Sesame Chicken recipe is because the sauce is a little more clear and sauteing the chicken helps to get rid of some of the white goo (protein) that chicken releases as it cooks – not because the chicken needs to cook longer.

Just a question on comparing this recipe with your Honey Sesame Chicken. With the honey chicken, you sauté the chicken with the onion for 3 minutes and then still pressure cook the chicken for 3 minutes for a total of 6 minutes before the cornstarch. But with this you only mention pressure cooking the chicken for 3 minutes with no sautéing. Is 3 min of cooking going to be long enough of a cook time? I guess I just want to verify since both recipes are similar but have different cook times.
