Recipe: Cranberry Pear Glazed Chicken

Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

• Salt and pepper, to taste

• 2 tablespoons olive oil

• 1 cup Deer Park Farm's Cranberry Pear Sauce

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary

• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for a kick)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Chicken:

   • Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides. This basic seasoning will help enhance the natural flavors of the chicken.

2. Sauté the Chicken:

   • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts. Cook for 5-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and nearly cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

3. Make the Glaze:

   • In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

   • Stir in Deer Park Farm's Cranberry Pear Sauce, dried rosemary, and red pepper flakes if using. Mix well and let the sauce simmer for about 3 minutes to blend the flavors and slightly thicken.

4. Glaze the Chicken:

   • Return the chicken to the skillet, coating each breast generously with the cranberry pear glaze. Continue to cook for an additional 5-10 minutes, spooning the sauce over the chicken occasionally, until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the sauce is bubbly.

5. Serve:

   • Plate the chicken and drizzle with extra sauce from the pan. This dish pairs wonderfully with steamed green beans and a side of garlic mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
