Time 4h25m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 c grand marnier
1 1/4 c apricot jam
3/4 c distilled white vinegar
4 1/2 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
3 Tbsp dijon mustard
3 Tbsp honey
1 Tbsp dried hot red pepper flakes
3 boneless but skin intact chicken breasts (about 12 oz each) halved
olive oil for brushing the chicken

Steps:

  • 1. In a saucepan combine all the ingredients except the chicken and the oil. Simmer the mixture until the jam and the honey are melted and let the mixture cool to room temp.
  • 2. In a shallow dish, marinate the chicken in the mixture covered and chilled, turning it several times for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
  • 3. Remove the chicken from the marinade, discarding the marinade and grill the chicken skin side down on a rack over very hot coals for 3 1/2 mins. Brush the skinless side with the oil, turn it and grill the chicken for 3 to 4 minutes more or until it is just firm to the touch.
