3 INGREDIENT CRANBERRY CHICKEN
This recipe sounds crazy, but it totally works. The sauce is neither too sweet nor too salty. Yummy and pretty enough for company. Easy and uses ingredients I always have on hand. You can use less chicken and the same amount of sauce ingredients; just use a smaller baking dish so sauce doesn't burn. Good served with rice to soak up all that delicious sauce. If you don't have whole berry sauce, jellied sauce works too. I've sometimes added some dried cranberries for visual interest, but they're not necessary.

- Use a large skillet: A large skillet will allow the chicken to cook evenly without overcrowding.
- Brown the chicken well: Browning the chicken will help to develop its flavor.
- Don't stir the cranberries too much: Stirring the cranberries too much will cause them to break down and release their juice. Instead, gently stir them once or twice during cooking.
- Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after cooking.
