Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 (6 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
¼ cup fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme
⅓ cup seedless blackberry fruit spread, no sugar added
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
½ teaspoon cornstarch, or as desired

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken breasts until golden brown on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. While the chicken breasts are cooking, whisk together the chicken broth, thyme, blackberry spread, and balsamic vinegar.
  • Once the chicken breasts have browned on both sides, pour in the blackberry sauce, and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the chicken breasts are no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes. Turn the chicken breasts over halfway through cooking. Serve with the reduced blackberry sauce. For a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch with about 2 teaspoons of water, and stir into simmering sauce; let cook until thickened, about 1 minute.
