    apricot jam
  • 1 tbsp
    light balsamic vinegar

Put the tomato ketchup, jam, chilli and balsamic vinegar in a saucepan and simmer for 20 minutes until the mixture resembles a syrup. Season the sauce with 2 pinches of salt and chill until needed.

Serve the crispy chicken nuggets with the prepared sweet ’n’ sour sauce.
