Thanks for this recipe, Melanie. My son LOVES chicken legs and he loves to get sweet ‘n sour chicken when we go out. I never thought of combining two of his favorites like this.
Of course, I’ll have to hide the fact that the apricot jam is what’s making it sweet. :)
I do not care for anything that uses ketchup or tomato soup in it, leaves a distinctive taste, but this sounds good “a must try”
thanks mary
