Juicy chicken breast served with a homemade strawberry sauce is a elegant dish. The natural sweetness of the strawberries pairs perfectly with the savory, seared chicken, ideal for summer meals, especially when served over crisp greens and seasonal fruit.
Ingredients:
2 chicken breasts
2 cups fresh strawberries
Juice of 1 lemon
Salt and pepper, to taste
Green leaf lettuce (for serving)
Instructions:
Wash and halve the strawberries. Place them in a saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until they soften and form a smooth sauce. Stir in the lemon juice and remove from heat. Set aside.
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Sear or grill on both sides until golden brown and fully cooked.
To serve, place a leaf or bed of green lettuce on a plate, drizzle with a bit of strawberry sauce, then top with the chicken breast. Spoon more sauce over the top. Garnish with whole strawberries or additional fruit and vegetables if desired.
