Strawberry Mint Chicken

Last summer, my kids requested that we grow strawberries in the garden. As is often the way with homegrown fruit and veg, when it came to harvest time we had more strawberries than we could eat. So I started putting them in every dish – sweet and savory!

That’s when I came up with Strawberry Mint Chicken. You wouldn’t think this flavor combination should work, but boy does it! This dish has become a family favorite and you’re about to find out why!

I start out by making a quick strawberry, mint and white wine based sauce. Then I grill the chicken. I serve the cooked chicken with the sauce and a sprinkle of green onion on top. Quick, easy and delicious!

To make Strawberry Mint Chicken, you will need the following ingredients:

Steps to make Strawberry Mint Chicken

1	Make the sauce	2
Mix the cornstarch, sugar, nutmeg, pepper and water together in a small saucepan until smooth.
2	Add strawberries and wine	3
Stir the strawberries and wine or white grape juice into the saucepan contents. Bring to a boil.
3	Simmer	3
Turn the heat down to low. Simmer uncovered for 3-5 minutes or until the sauce has thickened and the strawberries have softened. Stir occasionally at this step.
4	Add the mint	2
Remove the sauce from the heat. Stir in the mint and set the saucepan to one side.
5	Grill the chicken	10
Season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides to taste. Place on a lightly oiled grill rack and grill over medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side.

During the last four minutes of cooking time, brush the chicken occasionally with 1/4 cup of the strawberry sauce.
7	Serve
