adding a raspberry dipping sauce or glaze the chicken is outstanding!! Whisk some seedless raspberry jam with apple cider vinegar and try that, amazing!!!
11/1/2011 08:45:47 AM Report AbuseMy husband says we should make this again for guests because it looks impressive and is delicious. My children didn't like the flavor of the Harvest Blend juice - I'll try something else next time. If you wan't yours saltier, use more salt on the chicken and the greens. We thought it was perfect.
