What are some good sauces to cook chicken in?

I cook for myself a lot and we always have chicken breasts in the freezer. I usually make it with rice or as chicken fetticuine alfredo, but it gets old. What are some yummy and easy sauces or recipes for chicken breasts?

1. Easy & Yummy Raspberry Chicken Breast! Only 6 Ingredients! 2 tablespoons grill mates roasted garlic Montreal chicken seasoning 1/2 cup water 1/3 cup white wine vinegar 2 teaspoons cornstarch 1/2 cup raspberry preserves 2 lbs boneless chicken breasts Directions 1 In a small saucepan, blend first 4 ingredients until cornstarch is completely dissolved. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly over medium heat until mixture thickens (approx. 4 min) Add preserves; stir until melted. Remove saucepan from burner and allow mixture to cool completely. 2 Place chicken in a self closing plastic bag. Reserve l/3 cup marinade pour remaining remaining marinade over chicken; close bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Remove chicken from marinade. 3 Place on grill over medium heat. Grill approximately l0 minutes or so until done, turning occasionally and basting with reserved marinade.
2. I just eyeball this sauce when I make it, so I can't give you exact measurements, so these are just approximations. 1 tbsp butter 2 tbsp dijon mustard 1/4 cup beef broth 2-4 tbsp sour cream 2 tbsp red pepper sauce (I use A1 Chicago Steakhouse marinade) Melt the butter in a saucepan, add in beef broth, wisk in all other ingredients. Let simmer at medium to medium high, stirring occasionally, until it reduces and thickens. I made this for a sauce to go with a steak one day, and I ended up loving the sauce I make it to go with just about everything. Feel free to change measurements to taste. I usually add in sliced up chicken breast and serve with egg noodles.
3. Ohh there is this one chicken recipe that is sooo easy and delicious. you get an overn proof pan, a can of no name brand celery soup. pour that into the pan along with half a can of water. then you add you chicken in there. cook at 350' for one hour. then you throw that one some rice, and maybe even add in some cooked veggies. mmm
4. Chicken Sauce Piquante 2 chicken breasts cut up 2 large onions, chopped 1 bell pepper 4 cloves garlic 1 tablespoon roux 1 8-ounce can tomato sauce Gravy-thickening flour 1/2 bunch scallions 1/2 bunch parsley Brown the chicken in a large pot. Pour off the fat but keep the drippings. Add the vegetables to the chicken and drippings and cook until softened. Add water to cover the chicken and some gravy thickening flour. Let tenderize, covered, over low heat, stirring occasionally. Add scallions and parsley five minutes before serving. Serve over boiled rice.
5. Make Teriyaki chicken. I don't have a specific recipe for this, Use about 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1 Tablespoon brown sugar, 2 cloves garlic crushes, and 1 tsp. fresh ground ginger. Bake the chicken in this marinade, turning it several times as it bakes.
6. Something yummy and delicious is just melting plain old apricot preserves or jam. This makes a satisfying sweet and sticky sauce for chicken and goes great with rice. You can also try this... grape jelly, and chili sauce mixed and melted together for dipping chunks of breaded chicken in.
