Risa's Meatballs with Jackie's Jam
Chef Dave's Jam "Marinaded" Meats
Add some pizazz and a mouthful of flavor by cooking (baking/broiling/grilling) your favorite meats as usual, do not over cook.
Upon completion, spread jam evenly on top THEN tent with foil paper and allow to rest for 2-3 minutes.
This quick little hack will transform your ordinary meats into extraordinary dishes.
Note: if slow cooking, add the jam at the beginning of the process.
Complement your meats with the right jam. Chef Dave recommends the following pairings:
Chicken - Mango Raspberry or Triple Citrus
Salmon - Blood Orange, Spicy Raspberry, or Triple Citrus
Pork ribs - Tripleberry, Mango Raspberry or Spicy Rasperry
