Raspberry Chicken & A New Cookbook

I've been doing this blog for months, and I have finally hit a point where there's only 2 or 3 recipes left in each book I want to try, so I have mixed in a new cookbook!
I watch Trisha Yearwood's Food Network cooking show every Saturday morning and jumped at picking up Trisha's Table when I came across it.
This dish stood out to me. A savory chicken dish with a dash of fruit.

Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast cutlets
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup all purpose flour
1/4 cup of olive oil
1 large shallot, thinly sliced
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 cup of white wine
1 cup of chicken stock
6 ounces of mushrooms
1 cup of raspberries
2 tbs of salted butter
1 tsp of lemon zest
1 tbs of balsamic vinegar

Directions
Season chicken with salt and pepper.
Put flour in a shallow bowl and dredge chicken in flour and shake off excess.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil in medium heat until it simmers.
Add the chicken and sear until slightly brown, about 3 minutes a side.
Remove the chicken from the skillet.
Add the shallot and garlic to the same pan and cook for about 1 minute.
Add the wine and chicken stock and cook until slightly reduces, about 10 minutes.
Add the mushrooms , and reduce heat to low.
Return chicken to skillet, cover and cook for 10 minutes.
Add raspberries, lemon zest, butter and balsamic.
Once butter is melted, serve.

Changes I made!
I didn't check my pantry accurately and used white balsamic vinegar instead of regular, but this dish was still amazing.

This recipe is from Trisha's Table.

Curry, from Audrey

This may be a surprise, but as a small town Midwest girl, I did not grow up eating curry. I don't think I ever even tried curry, until I moved to Iowa and worked a woman who lived in New York City for decades. I was just learning how to cook, and I wanted other dishes to try and make. I asked her what I should learn how to make and without hesitating, she said curry. So I went online to try and find a recipe, and did not care for it. After looking at the recipe I realized it was because it had the cursed ingredient of peas in it, so I've been on a mission to find a pea less curry I like, and I found 2 recipes I wanted to try, and this is the first one I gave a shot. Ingredients 1 chicken breast 1 cup of flour 2 tbs of olive oil 1 cup of chicken broth 1 tps of mild curry 1 tps of strong curry 1 carrot, peeled and diced ...
