For an intensified cranberry flavor, consider using 1/4 cup of dried cranberries or cherries instead of fresh or frozen ones. If using dried fruit, there is no need to chop them.
A splash of orange liqueur (such as Grand Marnier or Cointreau) added to the cranberry mixture can enhance the citrus notes.
Serve with a side of roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or wild rice for a complete and satisfying meal.
