Categories     Entree

Time 2h20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 whole 4-5 lb chicken, cut into individual pieces
1 quart buttermilk
3/4 cup dry rub
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
1/2 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons shallots, diced
1/2 jalapeño diced, seeds and ribs removed
1 clove garlic, chopped
½ cup apricot jam
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lime juice

Steps:

  • Pat dry chicken.
  • In a large bowl or wide deep dish combine buttermilk, dry rub, salt, and pepper, and stir to combine. Place chicken into buttermilk bath, cover with plastic wrap, and place in fridge to marinate for 2-3 hours.
  • Remove chicken from the marinade. Place on a drying rack (we used a drying rack on top of a foil lined cookie sheet pan). Place back in fridge, uncovered, for one hour.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat sauté shallots and jalapeños in olive oil for 8 minutes or until translucent. Add garlic and let cook 1-2 minutes. Add jam and honey, stir, and bring to a slight simmer. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 additional minutes.
  • Remove from heat, stir in the lime, and let cool at least 15 minutes to set and thicken.
  • Prepare grill for direct/indirect cooking. (If using a gas grill preheat grill to medium heat.)
  • Place chicken pieces on grill over direct heat, but be careful of flare-ups. After 4-5 minutes (or when a nice crust starts to develop) turn chicken over and allow it to cook an additional 4-5 minutes per side. When the other side has developed a nice crust, move the pieces to indirect heat to avoid flare-ups.
  • As the chicken nears appropriate finish temperature (165 degrees for breast, 180 for thighs) begin to brush chicken pieces liberally with the glaze.Apply all of the glaze between the chicken pieces, top side only!
  • Allow the chicken to finish cooking to temperature (165 degrees), and then remove from the grill. Let the chicken pieces rest 10 minutes to allow juices to redistribute. Serve

APRICOT GLAZED CHICKEN BREASTS



Apricot Glazed Chicken Breasts image

A simple and quick main dish designed for busy nights or cooking novices. Add a steamed vegetable and rice and a tasty dinner is on the table in 30 minutes or less. I like to include the hot sauce not to make this a spicy dish but to cut the sweetness just a bit. Planning to try this on the grill this summer as it should work very well. (WW 4 pts)

vegetable oil cooking spray
3 tablespoons apricot preserves
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 teaspoon white balsamic vinegar or 1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
2 -3 drops Tabasco sauce (optional)
4 (5 -6 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breast halves, trimmed
1/2-1 teaspoon crumbled dried thyme

  • Season the chicken breasts with the thyme and salt and pepper. Arrange the chicken breasts, skin side down, on the prepared pan and broil 4 to 6 inches from the heat for 5 minutes. Turn and broil for 3 minutes. (If you are using larger chicken breasts, adjust the cooking time.)
  • Brush each chicken breast with some of the fruit glaze and broil for 1 to 2 minutes, until the glaze is bubbly and the chicken is no longer pink in the thickest part. Turn the chicken (it should now be skin side up) and brush on the rest of the glaze an broil an additional minute.
