Ingredients : Apple-Glazed Barbecued Chicken Recipe
1 can frozen apple juice concentrate - (6, thawed
1/4 cup reduced-sodium ketchup
2 tbsp brown sugar - (packed)
1 tbsp cider vinegar
1 tsp dried thyme
1/8 tsp hot-pepper sauce
6 boneless skinless chicken breast ha, (4 oz ea)
In a small saucepan, combine the apple juice concentrate, ketchup, brown
sugar, vinegar, thyme and hot-pepper sauce. Cook, stirring, over medium
heat until the sugar completely dissolves. Remove from the heat and cool
to room temperature.
Place the chicken in a single layer in a 13- by 9-inch baking pan. Pour
about half of the cooled ketchup mixture over the chicken, turning once to
coat both sides. Cover and refrigerate both the chicken and the remaining
ketchup mixture for 4 to 24 hours.
Coat a grill rack with nonstick spray. Then light the grill according the
manufacturer's directions. Check the temperature for grilling; the
temperature should be medium-hot. Place the rack on the grill. Remove the
chicken from the ketchup mixture; discard whatever ketchup mixture remains
in the baking pan. Coat the chicken pieces with nonstick spray and brush
them with some of the remaining ketchup mixture. Place the chicken on the
rack and grill, uncovered, for 8 minutes. Turn the chicken over and brush
with the remaining ketchup mixture. Grill for 7 to 10 minutes, or until
the chicken is tender and cooked through. Discard any remaining ketchup
mixture.
To broil the chicken instead of grilling it, coat the rack of a broiling
pan with nonstick spray. Remove the chicken from the ketchup mixture;
discard whatever ketchup mixture remains in the baking pan. Coat the
chicken pieces with nonstick spray and brush them with some of the
remaining ketchup mixture. Place the chicken on the rack. Broil 4 inches
from the heat for 5 minutes. Turn the chicken over and brush again with
the remaining ketchup mixture. Broil for 4 to 6 minutes, or until the
chicken is tender and cooked through. Discard any remaining ketchup
mixture.
This recipe yields 6 servings.
Comments: Although all chicken is much leaner without the skin, skinless
white meat has only about half the fat of skinless dark meat. That's why
we chose chicken breast halves for this easy-to-prepare recipe.
