No basting required! Keep the holiday turkey moist with a bay leaf-infused honey glaze. Serve with a chutney of pears, apricots and figs.

Make this chutney a few days ahead to allow flavors to blend. This spiced cranberry chutney makes a tasty accompaniment to your holiday roast turkey or weeknight roast chicken.

This chutney was developed by me before a noon television segment on healthy eating. I wanted to include cranberries and not just a typical side cranberry relish. I wanted to include the berries along with some dried cherries, both of which are high in antioxidants and fibers. I then added some walnuts. Cooking the ingredients in a pomegranate juice with port gives a richness of flavors that is only believed by eating with cheese and a cracker.

Served warm or cold, this fruity chutney provides an instant kiss of holiday flavor. Enjoy as an alternative to cranberry sauce with your roast turkey.
