Very good. Always looking for different ways to do chicken. I fried the chicken; think it would be even better grilled or baked.

This is a wonderful easy dinner party meal. I served with wild rice and broccoli and impressed my guests. They all took home the recipe. The red cherry preserves over the chicken makes a very pretty setting for a party.

My husband and I really liked this recipe. You can't beat the ease of preparation! The flavor is nice, it's sweet and spicy. I'll definitely make this again.
