This Discover Cooking with California Olive Oil Recipe Contest submission comes from Michelle Mazzara. She describes her Grilled Chicken with Cherry & Onion Sauce recipe:
“The sauce is tangy and sweet at the same time. The chili sauce gives it a little kick. This is perfect dinner to have with a nice bottle of California wine. It is also the perfect dish to make in the summer when cherries are in full season.”
