Raspberry Chipotle Sauce on Roasted Chicken

Raspberry Chipotle Sauce on Roasted Chicken is the a unique taste that let’s you celebrate the berry season with style.  If you’re a berry lover and want to experience every flavor possible, this recipe is a must make!

I cooked them on a rack over a foil covered baking sheet so the clean up was a snap.  You’ll want to cook the chicken with a simple salt and pepper first and add your sauce in the last few minutes of roasting.  Prepare the sauce while the chicken is in the oven and presto – easy, healthy dinner.

If your family eats a lot of chicken, this is a budget-friendly meal that changes up the flavour wonderfully and the kids will love this.  If you decide to make this in the cooler months, frozen raspberries will do just fine.

I’ll admit, I was a little skeptical to take the first bite – they looked delicious but raspberry and chicken?   No need for hesitation – scrumptious!   The raspberry flavour is absorbed into the skin and it tastes like a natural combo – a home run!
