In the world of tomatoes (or tomahtoes), one can easily wrap their culinary mind around tomato sauce; that's as elementary as ABC. Ketchup? C'mon, man, give us a challenge. How about… tomato jam? Made with sweet brown sugar and a splash of acid with lemon juice, you'll watch as our friends the tomatoes (or tomahtoes) break up and become a sticky, thick, delicious jam, perfect for the bone-on skin-on chicken breast that accompanies it.
