Apple Cranberry Raspberry Chicken is a delightful blend of sweet and savory flavors, featuring tender chicken marinated with a luscious fruit mixture of apples, cranberries, and raspberries.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 pounds)
  • 1 cup fresh cranberries (you can use frozen if fresh aren’t available)
  • 1 cup raspberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 medium apples, cored and diced (preferably Granny Smith)
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth (homemade or low-sodium store-bought)
  • 1/4 cup honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken by combining it with olive oil, honey, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Let it sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Prepare the fruit mixture by combining cranberries, raspberries, and diced apples in a bowl. Drizzle with chicken broth and toss gently.
  3. Sear the marinated chicken in a skillet over medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  4. Combine the fruit mixture with the chicken in the skillet, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes.

Notes

  • Use a resealable plastic bag for easy marinating.
  • Choose organic fruits for better flavor.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after cooking for juicier meat.
