About

Here’s an idea for taking fresh raspberries beyond the yogurt and cereal bowl and into cocktail hour and even the main course!
Not only is this chicken dish sweet, flavorful, and healthy…it also makes a colorful presentation! The mint and honey balance the tangy raspberries and bubbly in the cocktail and the fruity glaze compliments the rich dark meat.
