How to Make Raspberry Marinade

  1. In a large freezer bag, combine 1 cup raspberry preserves, 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  2. Add 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or 1 lb pork chops to the bag. Ensure the meat is fully coated in the marinade.
  3. Seal the bag tightly and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 hours for maximum flavor.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  5. Place chicken or chops on a baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes for chicken breasts, basting halfway through with reserved marinade. For pork chops, bake for 35-40 minutes, basting frequently.
  7. Internal temperature of chicken should reach 165°F (74°C) and pork chops 145°F (63°C).
  8. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
