2 pears, peeled, cored and cut into chunks
-
1/2 cup fresh cranberries
-
1/3 cup dried cranberries
-
2 tablespoons honey
-
1 tablespoon cranberry or orange juice

4 skinless, boneless chicken-breast halves

In a medium saucepan, combine the pears, fresh and dried cranberries, honey and juice. Bring to a gentle boil and cook, uncovered, for 3 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in orange peel and ginger. Set aside to cool slightly.
