Categories     Chicken

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/4 cup flour
2/3 cup low-fat chicken broth
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/2 cup low-sugar raspberry preserves, low sugar variety
1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Cut chicken into bite sized pieces. Salt and pepper to taste. Dredge in flour, shaking excess flour from the meat.
  • Cook chicken in a nonstick skillet or wok on medium heat approximately 15 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet.
  • Mix broth, cornstarch and preserves in skillet over medium heat. Stir in vinegar. Add chicken. Cook approximately 10 minutes, turning after 5.

Tips:

  • Use fresh raspberries. Fresh raspberries have a more intense flavor and will hold their shape better than frozen raspberries.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken will not cook evenly and will be more likely to stick.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat. Medium heat will help to prevent the chicken from overcooking and becoming dry.
  • Do not overcook the chicken. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough. Cook the chicken until it is cooked through but still tender and juicy.
  • Use a good quality balsamic vinegar. A good quality balsamic vinegar will have a rich, complex flavor that will enhance the flavor of the chicken and sauce.

Conclusion:

Balsamic raspberry chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The combination of sweet and tangy flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve balsamic raspberry chicken with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
