Preparation

Step 1

Whisk together marmalade, piquanté peppers, pepper juice, tamari, vinegar, sambal, cornstarch, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil.
Heat peanut oil in a sauté pan over high until it shimmers; add chicken and sauté until golden, about 4 minutes per side.
Add marmalade mixture to pan; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, stirring sauce and flipping chicken occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breasts registers 165°, 10–12 minutes. Serve chicken with sauce.
