  • Author: Chef Mia
  • Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 cup cranberry sauce (homemade or store-bought)
– 1 tablespoon soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
– 2 tablespoons honey
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Creating Sweet and Savory Cranberry Glazed Chicken can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
2. Sear the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for about 5-7 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
3. Make the Glaze: In a separate bowl, combine cranberry sauce, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, and honey. Mix well until fully blended.
4. Add the Glaze: Once the chicken is seared, pour the cranberry glaze over the chicken in the skillet.
5. Simmer: Reduce the heat to medium-low and cover the skillet. Let the chicken simmer in the glaze for about 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
6. Baste the Chicken: Occasionally spoon the glaze over the chicken as it cooks to enhance flavor.
7. Rest the Chicken: Once cooked, remove the skillet from heat and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes.
8. Garnish: Sprinkle fresh parsley on top for an added touch of color and flavor before serving.
9. Serve: Slice the chicken and drizzle any remaining glaze over the top.

These easy steps will guide you in creating this incredible dish effortlessly.
