Caramelized Chicken With Craisins - a La Jen (Funny Yard Duty)

Gone are the days of the traditional “coffee clutch”. Instead, many of us come together at work, clubs, school, auxiliaries, church, or wherever people congregate these days – To chat, to laugh, to learn, and to share. I have the good fortune to work with a wonderful group of ladies at an elementary school in Nevada’s Carson Valley. When we aren’t discussing daily tasks and deadlines associated with our jobs at GES, we are enjoying each other’s company by way of telling a joke or two, catching up on the events in each other’s lives and my personal favorite, bringing “a dish to pass” during our lunch break. Our informal potlucks have been great opportunities to share a recipe, show-off a family favorite dish, and enjoy good food with friends. Below is a coworker’s (Jennifer H.) recipe for a family favorite “cooked up” by her dad, “Caramelized Chicken with Craisins”. I recently made this dish for my family and the result was wonderfully delicious. This is definitely a keeper in my recipe library! Why not bring this new, delicious idea to your family’s dinner table … Enjoy!
