Roasted Raspberry Chipotle Chicken with Cranberry Spinach Salad


Chicken

1/2 cup olive oil

2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary

1 tablespoon minced garlic

1 teaspoon sea salt

1-1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded thin.

1-3/4 cups Rapberry Chipotle Sauce (found at Costco)

Heat grill. You can BBQ this outside, or use your indoor grill (George Foreman Grill works well). Combine the olive oil, rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Whisk to blend well. Place the chicken on a baking sheet and rub generously all over with the seasoned oil. Grill the meat on preheated grill, turning often, until cooked through. While meat is grilling, pour Roasted Raspberry Chipotle Sauce into a small saucepan and cook just to heat the sauce through. Remove meat from heat and set aside, loosely covered with foil, for 10 minutes, to rest. Slice meat as desired and serve with warmed sauce.
