Use Up That Bottle

As I have made well over 1000 different recipes over the last four years, I find that I purchase ingredients that I end up using just a little of and then they sit in my fridge or pantry for a long time. A very long time. Such was the case with a bottle of raspberry vinegar.

For months after, I would sometimes use it in place of red wine vinegar, but mostly it sat and collected dust. Enough was enough. I searched for a recipe where I could use it and came up with this one.

Grilled Chicken Breasts in Raspberry Vinegar Marinade

Part of this delicious meal.

The marinade does infuse the chicken with some raspberry flavor.

Using my indoor grill for this one.

A great use of a long-sitting ingredient!

Black pepper
1/4 c Chicken Stock
4 Chicken breasts halves

1/2 c Raspberry vinegar; or wine vinegar

Arrange in one layer in large, shallow microwaveable dish, with thicker parts toward outer edges. Pierce skin in several places with sharp knife. Cover with waxed papper. Microwave at high 4 minutes per pound. Turn over and rearrange part-way through cooking. Transfer immediately to preheated grill, skin side up, over low heat. Turn often for even grilling.
