Pulled Chicken Caprese

Pulled Chicken Caprese

A classic with a modern twist. Our Fresh Tomato Jam brings all the bright, fresh tomatoes with a touch of sweetness for a unique glaze that caramelizes oven-baked chicken all from one jar! We love this dish in the winter when fresh tomatoes are hard to find in Vermont. This pulled chicken makes a great sandwich, slider or wonderful gluten free option when served over hearty greens.
