Toni, this is such a wonderful recipe! The Marmalade has such a beautiful flavor of citrus and ginger! I could have drank the dressing.... I let the Chicken marinate for a good 24 hours and I grilled it on the outside grill instead of using the broiler. This is one of my new favorite salad recipes! Thanks toni! *Zaar World Tour 3*Reply
