In a large bowl, stir together the ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, chiles, garlic, and blueberries. Set aside.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast with the salt and pepper. Add the chicken breast to the heated skillet and brown on both sides (approximately 2½ minutes per side).
Once browned, lower the heat under the skillet to medium/low.
