CHERRY-CRANBERRY CHUTNEY



Cherry-Cranberry Chutney image

This replaced the canned sauce at Christmas the first year I made it! I got a photocopy of the recipe about 20 years ago from a coworker. (Still have that photocopy!) I've now introduced it to my future in-laws, who love it, too. The color is a deep ruby red, complementing the other holiday dishes nicely. Note: I've done the orange all kinds of ways, and leaving it whole works best in terms of texture. Another option is to use a blend of orange peel and orange extract to suit your tastes. Bon appetit!

Scant 1/4 teaspoon crushed red-pepper flakes

3 cups canned Bing cherries
1/2 cup golden raisins
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon or chives
4 boneless duck breasts, skin-on (about 1 pound each)
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and shallot, and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 7 minutes. Add tomato paste, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, cumin, red-pepper flakes, and 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Reduce heat to medium and add bell pepper.

  • Place 1/4 cup of the cherry mixture in the bowl of a small food processor and process until smooth, about 1 minute. Reserve for glazing duck.
  • Add remaining cherries to cherry mixture, along with raisins and tarragon or chives; stir to combine. Glaze and chutney can be made up to a day in advance and stored, refrigerated, in an airtight container. Bring to room temperature before using.
  • Using a small sharp knife, score skin side of duck breasts in a crosshatch pattern; season with salt and pepper. In a large ovenproof heavy-bottomed skillet, heat 2 tablespoons water over low heat. Add breasts, skin-side down, and cook until fat is rendered and skin is golden brown, about 25 minutes.

  • Using a sharp knife, slice duck breasts at a 45-degree angle. Serve immediately with chutney.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cherries: Use fresh, ripe cherries for the best flavor. You can use any variety of cherries, but tart cherries are a good choice as they have a nice balance of sweetness and acidity.
  • Prepare the cherries properly: Wash the cherries thoroughly and remove the pits. You can use a cherry pitter to make this task easier.
  • Use a variety of spices: Feel free to experiment with different spices to create a chutney that suits your taste. Common spices used in cherry chutney include cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and nutmeg.
  • Cook the chutney until it reaches the desired consistency: The chutney should be thick and spreadable. If it is too thin, continue to cook it until it thickens.
  • Store the chutney properly: Cherry chutney can be stored in a jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 months. You can also freeze the chutney for up to 1 year.

Conclusion:

Cherry chutney is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed in many ways. It is perfect for adding a sweet and tangy flavor to grilled meats, fish, or chicken.
