- 4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
- 4 to 6 large skinless boneless chicken breast halves

- black pepper
- 1/4 cup minced fresh chives
- Heat oven to 375 degrees.
- Line a rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat.

- Meanwhile, in a blender, puree remaining grapes until smooth.

- In a large, heavy nonstick skillet, melt half the butter over high heat.
- Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper and cook on both sides until golden brown, reducing the heat to prevent scorching, about 4 minutes per side.

- Transfer chicken to a serving platter and keep warm.
- Whisk remaining butter into sauce and cook over high heat for 1 minute.
