    Recipe by Desireesweet: Easy Slow Cooker Orange Chicken/saved
    Caught a good sale at the years end for chicken parts. This recipe seemed a natural jumping off point.
    Good flavors. Used home-made orange marmalade and used my own recipe for Bbq Sauce
    Crocked on HI for 4hrs. It was probably done in less time.
    Plated it with rice and string beans.
    Was going to leave the bone in but went the extra mile.

    Small ingredient list so FA should like it :) The one time I tried orange marmalade (over 10 years ago) I did not like it. Wonder if my taste buds have changed? Looks great Points!

    Yes, this is right up my alley! Plus, I looove orange marmalade. I just had it the other day on a panini. Delicious.

    If you like OJ you should like marmalade. Although too much pith in your marmalade will leave a bitter after-taste. I can see how store bought stuff could be processed that way.

    I don't like any pulp in my orange juice so from what I remember it seemed like there were little strands of pulp? in the marmalade?

    There are little strips of orange peel in marmalade, Michelle. Its been my experience that the more expensive marmalades aren't as bitter but that could just be me.

    The pulp are the sacks surrounding the oranges juice. The membrane is the enclosure surrounding each orange wedge segment. The pith is the white covering under the orange skin. There shouldn't be any membrane or pith in the marmalade. Orange skin helps with flavor and it has all the essential oil in it. There is also grapefruit in the mix. It's a matter of how the bulk manufacturer strips out the orange for use. What makes it marmalade are the pulp and peel. Otherwise it would be congealed strained orange juice.
