Blackberry Pepper Jack Chicken is a bold and beautiful fusion of sweet, spicy, and creamy flavors. Juicy, pan-seared chicken breasts are crowned with melty pepper jack cheese, then finished in a luxurious garlic herb cream sauce studded with bursts of fresh blackberry. The result is rich, vibrant, and unforgettable.

The smoky paprika seasoning builds depth in the chicken, while pepper jack adds just the right amount of heat. As the cheese melts over the golden crust, it creates a luscious layer that blends seamlessly into the sauce.

The garlic herb cream sauce is silky and savory, balanced by Parmesan and fresh herbs. When blackberries are gently folded in, they release a subtle sweetness and jewel-toned color that elevates the entire dish.

Serve this stunning entrée with garlic mashed potatoes, buttered rice, or roasted vegetables for a restaurant-quality dinner that feels both comforting and refined.
