    The Best of Sunset Lowfat Cookbook

    Recipe Introduction


    This recipe may look strange, but it's really delicious. The whole family loved it. I served it with Texmati rice and broccoli/carrots/edamame.

    List of Ingredients




    1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast halves -- (4 breast halves), seasoned with salt and pepper
    1 Tablespoon canola oil
    1/2 cup apricot all-fruit spread
    3 Tablespoons Dijon mustard
    1/2 cup blueberries -- (can use frozen, no need to thaw)
    1/3 cup white wine vinegar

    Recipe



    Rinse chicken and pat dry. Heat oil in a wide frying pan over medium high heat.

    Add chicken and cook, turning as needed, until browned on both sides (about 6 minutes).

    Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together jam and mustard. Spread jam mixture over tops of chicken pieces; sprinkle with blueberries. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook until meat in the thickest part is no longer pink (about 15 minutes).

    With a slotted spoon, lift chicken and blueberries to a platter and keep warm (I left the blueberries in the pan).

    Add vinegar to pan, increase heat to med-high, and bring sauce to a boil. Boil uncovered, stirring occasionally, until sauce is reduced by about a third (about 5 minutes). Pour sauce evenly over chicken.
