• Add vinegar, scraping any bits stuck to pan.
• Stir in evaporated milk and cranberries, bringing to a boil.
• Reduce heat and boil gently, stirring often, for about 3 minutes or until slightly thickened.
• Meanwhile, in a large pot of boiling salted water, cook whole wheat pasta for about 10 minutes or until at your desired tenderness. Drain and return to the pot.
• Add chicken and any accumulated juices to the sauce; simmer for about three minutes or until chicken is no longer pink inside.
