I am a newlywed on a budget, just trying to make healthy and inexpensive meals for my husband and I to enjoy. He eats a lot, so cost is a big factor. Though I work 3 jobs, I manage to find time 6 nights a week to cook a full dinner for us both. I am constantly looking for new recipes that are moderately healthy, taste great, and won't break the bank.

On the side, I also own a brownie business called Gersheybars. My passion and love for cooking started when I was just a small child, baking with my mom and grandmother. The brownie recipe has been passed down through 5 generations and I am thrilled to finally have an outlet to share them with everybody else. Friends and family have helped spread the word and made my business as successful as it is today.

Onion Chicken

The original recipe can be found here. This was suprisingly good! The sauce seemed like it was going to be really sticky sweet, but it was just a tad bit sweet and sorta tangy. Next time I'd add more onions, probably double, but we are super onion fans. Overall, I thought it was good, and I'd make it again! We served it with corn on the cob and a side salad. Yum!

Ingredients
  • 1 pound chicken breast tenders
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup sliced onion
  • 1/2 cup seedless raspberry jam
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon bottled minced ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary

Directions

1. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, and sauté 2 minutes.

2. Add chicken to pan; sauté 8 minutes or until chicken is done. Remove onion and chicken from pan.

3. Add jam and remaining ingredients to pan; cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly with a whisk. Return chicken mixture to pan; cook 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
