Top tip:
After a bit of heat? Finish off your marmalade chicken with a drizzle of chilli oil and sliced fresh chilli or chilli flakes.
This slow cooker meal can also be made in the oven! Simply follow the steps above and combine ingredients in a casserole dish with a tight-fitting lid instead of a slow cooker. Bake at 170°C for two hours or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
