This speedy stovetop entree is special enough to serve company, yet easy enough for everyday. The moist chicken gets wonderful flavor from a sweet sauce made with strawberry jam, dried cranberries and pineapple juice. I like to serve it with rice pilaf, peas, a garden salad and cloverleaf rolls. -Kathy Rairigh, Milford, Indiana
Ingredients:
1-1/4 cups unsweetened pineapple juice
1/4 cup dried cranberries
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
1/4 cup strawberry spreadable fruit
1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 green onions, thinly sliced
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, combine the pineapple juice, cranberries, garlic and red pepper flakes; bring to a boil. Add chicken. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until a meat thermometer reaches 170°. Remove chicken to a platter and keep warm.
2. Bring cooking liquid to a boil; cook for 5-7 minutes or until liquid is reduced to 3/4 cup. Combine spreadable fruit and cornstarch until blended; add to the skillet. Boil and stir for 1 minute or until thickened. Spoon over chicken. Sprinkle with onions. Yield: 4 servings.
