Ingredients
- Chicken breasts: 2 approximately 1 lb or 450 grams
- Salt: 1 tsp 5 grams
- Black pepper: 1/2 tsp 2 grams
- Olive oil: 2 tbsp 30 ml
- Fresh mixed berries like strawberries, blueberries, raspberries: 2 cups (500 grams)
- Lemon juice: 1 tbsp 15 ml
- Honey: 2 tbsp 30 ml
- Fresh thyme: 1 tsp 5 grams
- Garlic minced: 2 cloves
- Chicken broth: 1/2 cup 120 ml
Instructions
- Season the Chicken:
- Rub both chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and olive oil. This will ensure they’re flavorful and won’t stick to the grill.
- Grill That Chicken!:
- Heat up your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the chicken breasts on it and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side. They should have a lovely char and be fully cooked inside.
- Berry Reduction Time:
- While the chicken is grilling, get started on the berry reduction. Combine the mixed berries, lemon juice, honey, thyme, garlic, and chicken broth in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil.
- Simmer and Reduce:
- Once boiling, reduce the heat and let the berry mixture simmer for about 15 minutes. It should thicken nicely. Keep stirring occasionally to avoid it sticking to the pan.
