Chicken With Raspberry Cream Sauce
"So easy. I got this recipe years ago from a friend. Her mother had given her the recipe. The cream made it a little different from the other recipes I read (and more fattening too)! This can be doubled to feed four and so on which is a good thing since my kids like this a lot."

Outstanding! I used Raspberry vinegar, omitted the garlic and added 1/4 cup of Tomato sauce and 3/4 cup of chicken broth to make it more savory rather than sweet. Our guests gobbled up my second batch and have asked to to pass on the recipe not only to themselves but to their friends as well. -
We liked the chicken and can understand why your kids would adore it. The cream sauce is different and surprisingly good over mashed potatoes considering the slight sweetness of it. I used Raspberry Balsamic Vinegar and skinless chicken thighs. I think these would be very good with cranberry sauce instead of the raspberry jam & fresh raspberries, which would be a tad easier on the budget. Thanks for sharing.

<p>I've collected recipes since I was a teen. After all these years I'm trying to get all my index cards and clippings, that still sound interesting to me, posted here so that I can find them and eventually make them! <br /> <br />I've posted some of my Mom's recipes. I regret not having paid more attention to my Grandmothers' cooking. They made some dishes that I miss and there were/are no recipes for them. <br /> <br />I have a wonderful DH and 2 wonderful sons. They are thrilled that I found this site since they directly benefit from it! Before finding 'Zaar, I was less of a cook and more of a recipe collector but now I try many more things and we're having more fun in the kitchen (at least I am)! <br /> <br />Thanks for all your ratings, comments and help in the forums AND for posting so many great recipes. You've enhanced my cooking skills and expanded my horizons! I've learned so much. <br /> <br />For fun, I also like to read fiction, travel, see movies and shows, shop (and I love to browse thrift shops and rummage/garage sales for cookbooks, etc.). <br /> <br />The discovery of a new dish does more for the happiness of mankind than the discovery of a new star Brillat-Savarin</p>
