a great chicken recipe for the grill or oven- more complex than a typical sweet and sour sauce

ingredients

  • Chicken
  • 1 tsp chopped garlic
  • 1/2 tsp grated lime rind
  • 2 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
  • 4 boneless chicken breasts
  • salt and freshly ground pepper
  • Aigre-douce sauce
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped shallots
  • 2 cups pomegranate juice
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/2 cider vinegar

directions

  • 1

    Combine garlic, lime rind, mustard, oil and coriander in a small bowl. Rub on chicken and marinade for 30 minutes. Season chicken with salt and pepper.

  • 2

    Combine shallots, pomegranate juice, sugar and vinegar in a pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 8 minutes, or until slightly syrupy.

  • 3
