Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish lined with parchment paper or lightly greased.

  2. In a small bowl, combine the cranberry sauce, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine all the flavors.

  3. Pour the cranberry mixture over the chicken breasts, ensuring that each piece is evenly coated.

  4. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

  5. Remove the foil and set the oven to broil. Place the chicken back in the oven for 3-5 minutes, or until the sauce starts to caramelize and the chicken gets a golden brown color.

  6. Once done, remove the baking dish from the oven. Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and added freshness.

  7. Serve the Cranberry Sauce Chicken hot with your favorite sides like roasted vegetables, rice, or mashed potatoes. Enjoy the delightful flavors and juicy tenderness of this delicious dish!
