12ouncesFresh cranberries
1mediumOnion; finely chopped
¼cupRaisins; seedless
2tablespoonsTriple Sec
2tablespoonsBrown sugar
2tablespoonsCider vinegar

3Jalapenos; with seeds (or to taste), chopped
½cupPecans; chopped

Directions

Combine all ingredients except jalapenos and pecans in a stainless steel pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes, stirring frequently. The cranberries will pop and the apples become tender and the mix will thicken.

Remove from the heat and process in a food processor. Use the pulse button so that you get a chunky texture, don't overprocess.

Add the jalapenos and pecans. If you are serving it now, allow it to cool, then chill it in a covered bowl. If canning, return the mixture to the heat and fill the jars for processing. (Process 15 minutes in a boiling water bath.)

Makes around 2 pints.
