Cranberry Curry

Okay so this is one of those recipes that sounds very weird but is actually delicious, and yes I know that's probably the opening line of most of my posts, but I'm serious--try it or request it some night that I'm cooking.

Ingredients:
1 tsp butter
2 tbsp minced onions or shallots
1 tbsp balsamic or raspberry vinegar
4 chicken breasts - chopped into bite sized pieces
1 cup whole-berry cranberry sauce
1 cup green apple chopped
3/4 to 1 tsp curry powder

Optional (depending on how you feel about things like nuts and raisins being in your dinner):
1/4 cup golden raisins
2 tbsp chopped walnuts

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350. Spray a 10-inch shallow casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.  Add butter & shallots/onions.  Bake uncovered for 5 minutes.  Add vinegar to dish & stir.  Add chicken, basting tops with vinegar/onion mixture.  Bake uncovered for 10 minutes.  Mix together cranberry sauce, apple, raisins, walnuts and curry.  Cover chicken with sauce and bake additional 15-20 minutes or until chicken is cooked and sauce bubbles.  Serve over rice, couscous, quinoa, or whatever floats your boat.
