Cranberry Port Sauce With Thyme - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup chicken stock
3 cups fresh cranberries or 3 cups frozen cranberries
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup port wine
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
fresh thyme sprig, for garnish

Preparation

Heat the stock in a 2-quart saute pan over medium heat; bring to a simmer.
Add in the cranberries and sugar; continue cooking for 10-15 minutes until the berries have popped and the sauce has begun to thicken.
Add in the port and thyme; bring back to a simmer.
Continue to cook for a few more minutes; turn the heat off.
The sauce will thicken as it cools; if the sauce becomes too thick, add more stock or more port.
