Nika and family are visiting and we made this for dinner today. I have to admit I wasn’t a fan but I did make some changes so it might be my fault. I didn’t use the red wine – substituted apple juice and about a tablespoon of red wine vinegar. The store I went to didn’t have plum preserves so I substituted with cherry preserves. I used all of the soy sauce called for so maybe just using half like Dana did would be better. We used boneless skinless chicken breasts instead of thighs. I marinated the chicken over night and then browned it in the pan as directed. I added the sauce and brought to a boil then put it all in the crockpot and cooked it on low for a few hours. Served it over steamed rice with steamed green beans. I was ok but not something I would make again – but, it might be any of my substitutions – apple juice, cherry preserves etc. Not sure what I did wrong. I see Dana really liked it so I am looking forward to reading other reviews of it.

Bummer! It is always sad when you spend so much time on making something and then don't end up liking it.
