Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook until browned on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Add the garlic and rosemary sprigs to the skillet. Cook for another minute.
- Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
- While the chicken is baking, make the raspberry glaze. In a small saucepan, combine the raspberries, balsamic vinegar, and honey. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries break down and the mixture thickens into a glaze.
- Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and brush the raspberry glaze over the chicken breasts.
- Serve the raspberry glazed rosemary chicken hot, garnished with fresh rosemary sprigs.
