Time 35m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 whole boneless, skinless chicken breasts, split, tenders removed to grill separately
12 tablespoons grapefruit (or orange) marmalade
12 tablespoons Dijon mustard
4 tablespoons honey
2 large grapefruits -- 1 pink, 1 white -- peeled and divided into sections
Salt to taste
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Poke holes in the chicken with the tines of a fork and set aside. Mix the marmalade, mustard and honey in a bowl. Add the chicken and turn to coat. Add half the grapefruit sections. Juice the remaining grapefruit sections. Add the juice to the marinade and discard the pulp. Refrigerate, covered, overnight.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade, reserve the grapefruit and bring the liquid to a boil. Reduce by half. Season the chicken with salt and brush with some of the glaze.
  • Heat the grill and brush with oil. Grill the chicken for 5 minutes. Turn and baste with sauce. Continue to turn and baste, until the juices run clear when pricked with a knife, about 12 to 15 minutes. During the last 5 minutes of grilling, broil the grapefruit sections until lightly browned. Serve the chicken topped with a few grapefruit sections and any remaining glaze.
