Blueberry Balsamic Chicken

Well, I was frequenting the farmers market again and the blueberries were just calling my name.

I love when fresh blueberries are in season. They have the perfect amount of sweetness with amazing antioxidant properties.

Of course, blueberries are better for you if you just pop them in your mouth raw, but I like to also make them into delicious cooked dishes.

If you cook blueberries down, they aren't quite so sweet and are the perfect compliment for a vinegar based sauce. 

This is an all in one skillet chicken recipe because sometimes I just really don't want to do dishes. Am I right ladies? Okay, lets start dinner!

2 boneless, skinless chicken breast

Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Add remaining tablespoon of buttery spread into the skillet.

Stir it all together.

Bring the mixture to a simmer.

Add your chicken back into the sauce. Cover and allow to simmer for 15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
