Wild Blueberry Chicken Breasts

1/2 tsp Cajun spices (or more to taste) 4 halves boneless, skinless chicken breasts 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped 1 medium onion, finely chopped

2 tsp olive oil 1/3 cup red wine 2 cups Wild Blueberries 1 tsp grated lemon rind 1/4 tsp salt (optional)

Dust chicken breasts with Cajun spices. Sauté in olive oil until brown and almost cooked through, 7 to 10 minutes. (If thick, cover and cook for 3 to 4 minutes more.) Remove chicken breasts from pan and keep warm. In same pan, sauté garlic and onion until transparent, scraping remaining bit of chicken from pan. Add red wine and cook down until most of the liquid is evaporated. Add Wild Blueberries, lemon rind and salt. Simmer for 5 minutes. (If Wild Blueberries are frozen, until berries are heated through.) Add salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and let sit for 5 minutes for flavors to blend. Spoon over chicken breasts and serve.
