My son is in the stage where he is eating adult food, but only chicken and starches. I came up with this delicious recipe to help get some more fruit in him! Ingredients:
3 plums, pitted and roughly chopped |
1 peach, pitted and roughly chopped |
1/4 cup mixed fruit and vegetable juice drink (such as juicy juice harvest surprise®) |
1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes, or to taste |
1 pinch ground paprika, or to taste |
1 pinch ground cinnamon, or to taste |
3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves |
salt and ground black pepper to taste |
1 plum, pitted and chopped |
1 peach, pitted and chopped |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a 9x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
2. Place 3 plums and 1 peach into the work bowl of a food processor with the juice drink, red pepper flakes, paprika, and cinnamon; process until smooth. Sprinkle the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper; place into the prepared baking dish. Pour about 3/4 of the fruit sauce over the chicken. Set the remaining sauce aside.
3. Bake the chicken in the preheated oven until the sauce has thickened and baked onto the meat, the chicken is no longer pink inside, and the juices run clear, about 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
4. Place each chicken breast on a plate and spoon the reserved fruit sauce over the chicken. Place 1 chopped plum and 1 chopped peach into a bowl, and mix the fruit together; garnish each chicken breast with 1/3 of the chopped fruit.
