Instructions
To prepare the salad dressing
- In a medium sized saucepan, heat up ½ tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add ¼ cup finely diced onion and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon minced garlic and cook for another minute. Add 1 teaspoon finely chopped chipotle chiles in adobo and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Add 2 cups fresh raspberries and cook until soft, about 3 minutes.
- Add ¼ cup raspberry vinegar and stir. Add ⅓ cup white sugar and ¼ teaspoon salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until thickened and reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool entirely.
To prepare the chicken
- Preheat the grill to high heat (or a skillet to medium-high). Oil the grill grates. Slice 1½ pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts in half horizontally, pat dry with paper towel, and then sprinkle 1 tablespoon McCormick Bacon Chipotle Seasoning Mix generously onto the breasts. Rub the mix all over the chicken making sure it is completely covered.
- Grill the chicken 5-8 minutes per side or until the chicken registers 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove from the heat and let stand for 5 minutes. Slice into strips.
