Instructions
For the Chicken
- Rinse the chicken tenders and pat dry. Place in a large ziplock bag.
- Combine the rest of the ingredients in a high speed blender until smooth.
- *optional* Strain the seeds from marinade (If you don't mind the crunch, then leave the seeds in!)

- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Place the marinated chicken in a baking pan and bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove from oven, drain off excess marinade, then place under high broil for 4 minutes, watching closely. Remove when golden.
For the Blackberry Sauce
- In a skillet over medium low heat, combine all of the ingredients and bring to a simmer.
- Simmer, stirring often, until the blackberries become bright and the sauce reaches desired consistency.
- If you wish to thicken the sauce more, add 1/2 teaspoon of arrowroot powder.
- *optional* Strain the seeds from the sauce (If you don't mind the crunch, then leave the seeds in!)
- Drizzle over the cooked chicken.
