Apple-Glazed Barbecued Chicken
.
Ingredients:
1 can (6 ounce)
frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed
1 tablespoon
cider vinegar
1 teaspoon dried
thyme
6 boneless, skinless chicken
breast halves (4 ounces each)
1/8 teaspoon
hot-pepper sauce
2 tablespoons
packed brown sugar
1/4 cup reduced-sodium
ketchup
Instructions:
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 (see the Test Kitchen Tip
below). 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.
