Quick Fix Raspberry Chicken

Our recipe party theme with quick fix.  I pulled out one of my Mother's quick fix recipe cook books and found this easy chicken recipe.  The instructions 

Raspberry Chicken

To broil 5-6 inches from the flame, place chicken directly in broiler pan without the rack --

1 2.5-3 lb. cut up broiler fryer chicken OR your favorite pieces of chicken (I used chicken tenders)
vegetable oil
1 10 oz. package frozen red raspberries (*quick-thaw pouch)
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 cup sliced almonds

Preheat broiler.  Brush chicken with oil.  Season with some salt and pepper.  Place chicken, skin side down or remove skin, on broiler rack.  Broil 5-6 inches from heat 20 minutes or until browned; turn.  Broil 10 minutes more.  Meanwhile, thaw raspberries; drain, reserving syrup. (*I couldn't find a package with juice so I used some raspberry jam and water as the syrup).   In saucepan blend syrup into cornstarch; stir in cinnamon.  Cook and stir until bubbly.  Stir in butter and lemon juice.  Gently stir in berries and nuts.  Serve with chicken.  Makes 4 servings.
