GRILLED RASPBERRY CHICKEN
Raspberry vinaigrette and raspberry jam lend a lovely fruit flavor to this moist chicken dish I created. Because the recipe uses thighs and drumsticks, it's also economical. I made it often. -Gloria Warczak Cedarburg, Wisconsin

RASPBERRY CHICKEN
Raspberry Chicken is probably my most-requested main dish at potlucks. I don't mind making it often. It's quick to fix...and always gets "cleaned up"! There are many fruit growers in our area of Oregon, and my husband and I enjoy picking fresh ingredients for recipes like this when we can.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: For this recipe, it's best to use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. You can also use chicken tenderloins, but they may cook more quickly than the other cuts of chicken.
- Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in the raspberry sauce for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight) will help to infuse it with flavor. If you're short on time, you can marinate the chicken for just 15 minutes, but the longer you marinate it, the more flavorful it will be.
- Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat will help to prevent it from drying out. If you cook it over high heat, it's more likely to burn on the outside and be undercooked on the inside.
- Use a meat thermometer: To ensure that the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that it has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest before serving: Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
This gourmet raspberry chicken recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The combination of sweet and savory flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve this chicken with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
