Print Recipe
Servings 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium red onion peeled and chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic peeled
  • 8 sun-dried tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup raw honey
  • 1/4 cup red wine
  • 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves 6-oz.
  • 1 tablespoon ghee or use coconut oil

Instructions
 

  • DO-AHEAD TIP: Marinate chicken overnight or for at least 5 hours (see recipe). Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor, except chicken and ghee (or coconut oil); pulse until smooth.
  • Place chicken in a large zipper-topped plastic bag and pour sauce on top. Seal the bag and turn to coat; refrigerate overnight or for at least 5 hours.
  • At time of cooking, remove chicken from marinade, reserving marinade. Melt the ghee (or coconut oil) in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add chicken and cook for 5 to 7 minutes per side or until cooked through; remove from pan and keep warm.
  • Pour reserved marinade into the skillet. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes or until reduced and thickened; serve over chicken.

Notes

SERVING SUGGESTION: Steamed green beans and Faux-Tay-Toes (steam cauliflower until tender; drain; mash with a little ghee or coconut oil, salt and pepper till you get a mashed potatoes texture).
