RASPBERRY CHICKEN

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Put chicken breast halves between sheets of plastic wrap; gently pound to flatten to an even thickness. If the chicken breasts are large, slice them in half horizontally to make cutlets.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper; drizzle or brush with balsamic vinaigrette.
• Cover and refrigerate.
• Clean the raspberries and put a few aside for garnish.
• In a saucepan, combine berries, jam, vinegar, tarragon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Let cool slightly.
• Spoon about 2 to 3 tablespoons of the sauce into a bowl, then strain the remaining raspberry sauce through a fine mesh strainer into the same bowl. Keep warm or refrigerate the sauce and warm it up when ready to serve.
• Grill chicken pieces over medium coals for about 3 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Alternatively, pan grill or broil the chicken breasts.
• Arrange the chicken on a platter or individual plates. Spoon raspberry sauce over the chicken pieces and garnish with some fresh berries, if desired.

ONE-PAN CRISPY SPAGHETTI AND CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit/220 degrees Celsius.
• Add 1 tablespoon oil to a large, ovenproof lidded skillet and heat over high. Season the chicken with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, then add to the hot oil, skin-side down. Cook for 7 minutes, without turning, to brown well.
• Turn the heat down to medium-high, then stir in the onion and turn over the chicken. Cook for 5 minutes, until the onion has softened and is lightly browned. Add the tomato paste, garlic and 1 tablespoon thyme, and cook, stirring the paste into the onions, for 2 minutes, until fragrant and everything is nicely browned.
• Add the boiling water, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, then add the spaghetti, stirring to submerge and evenly distribute. Use tongs to lift the chicken pieces so they sit on top of the spaghetti, skin-side up. Bring to a simmer, cover with a lid and transfer to the oven for 30 minutes, until the liquid is absorbed.
• While the pasta is in the oven, in a small bowl, mix together the Parmesan, bread crumbs, parsley, lemon zest and remaining 1 tablespoon thyme.
• After the pasta has baked for 30 minutes, remove it from the oven and reset the temperature to a high broil (grill) setting. Sprinkle the Parmesan bread crumbs over the pasta and chicken, drizzle with the remaining oil and return to the center rack to broil (grill) for 3 to 4 minutes, until nicely browned and crisp. Leave to settle for about 5 minutes before serving warm, directly from the pan.
