Serve with mashed potatoes or a mixture of white and wild rice.

Ingredients

1 lb  (500 g)  boneless skinless chicken breast
¼ tsp  (1 mL)  each salt and pepper
3 tbsp  (50 mL)  all-purpose flour (approx)
2 tbsp  (30 mL)  butter, divided
½ cup  (125 mL)  finely chopped shallots
1 tbsp  (15 mL)  minced fresh rosemary
¾ cup  (175 mL)  dry white wine
1/3 cup  (75 mL)  orange marmalade
2 tsp  (10 mL)  Dijon mustard
2 cups  (500 mL)  sour or sweet cherries, pitted and halved

Preparation

Flatten chicken to 1/2-in (1-cm) thickness using a mallet; season with salt and pepper, dredge with enough flour to coat. Discard remaining flour. Heat 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the butter in a large skillet set over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until golden, about 3 minutes per side; remove from pan.

Add remaining butter to pan. Stir in shallots and rosemary; sauté for 3 minutes or until softened. Stir in wine, marmalade and mustard. Return chicken to pan. Add cherries and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for about 10 minutes or until sauce is thickened. Serve cherry sauce spooned over chicken.
