GRILLED CHICKEN BREASTS IN RASPBERRY VINEGAR MARINADE

Steps:

• Remove excess fat from chicken breasts; place them in sealable plastic bag or non-aluminum bowl.
• Combine remaining ingredients; pour evenly over chicken breasts.
• Seal bag or cover bowl; marinate in refrigerator 4 hours or overnight.
• Turn occasionally.
• Remove chicken from marinade, reserving marinade.
• Arrange in one layer in greased 9x13-inch pan.
• Pierce skin in several places with sharp knife.
• Cover with foil.
• Bake at 350°F for 30-35 minutes, or until mostly cooked through; in the mean time, bring reserved marinade to a simmer in a small saucepan, simmering 15 minutes.
• After main cooking time, uncover chicken and baste with marinade every 5 minutes until chicken is cooked through, approx 15-20 minutes.
• For OAMC or freezing ahead, freeze this chicken, raw, in marinade -OR- freeze after cooking, making sure to include a portion of the cooking juices with each breast (keeps chicken moist while thawing).
• Serving suggestions: bed of rice or baby spinach; side of green salad with raspberry vinaigrette; mashed potatoes; steamed carrots or broccoli; sliced thin over a bed of peppered angel hair pasta.
