Serve this flavorful blackberry sauce with grilled or broiled chicken or sauteed pork medallions.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 1/2 cups blackberries
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 cup minced onion
  • 1/2 cup Cabernet or other dry red wine
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons blackberry jam or preserves, seedless
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • whole blackberries for garnish, optional

PREPARATION:

Put blackberries in food processor or blender and puree. Put the berries through a fine mesh strainer into a small bowl. Set aside.

Heat butter in a small sauté pan or saucepan over medium-low heat. Add onions and sauté, stirring occasionally, until tender and light yellow in color, about 10 minutes. Add the red wine and lemon juice. Bring to a boil; lower heat and simmer until reduced by about 1/2. Combine the blackberry pulp, jam or preserves, pepper, and salt; add to the wine mixture. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
Makes about 1 cup.
