Author's Notes

Due to variances in chicken breast thickness and grill temperatures, we highly recommend using a food thermometer to ensure your chicken is properly cooked.

Cooking Instructions

HIDE IMAGES
Step 1
Cut each Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts (6) in half horizontally to create two thinner pieces. Cover and refrigerate until time to cook.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, combine the Apricot Preserves (245 g) , Dried Apricots (65 g) , and Chicken Broth (60 mL) . Stir in the Spicy Brown Mustard (30 g) , Soy Sauce (30 mL) , zest from Lemon (1/4) , Crushed Red Pepper Flakes (as needed) , Salt (2 g) , Ground Black Pepper (1 g) , and McCormick® Garlic Powder (as needed) . Let this rest at room temperature while the grill is heating.
Step 3
Heat grill to a medium high heat, around 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). To get nice grill marks, place chicken on the grill diagonally at a 45 degree angle. Let it cook for about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Rotate 90 degrees and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Step 5
Flip the chicken and repeat the process on this side.
Step 6
Toward the end of cooking the second side, baste the chicken generously with the prepared apricot sauce. Flip, baste the other side, and cook for a minute or two. Repeat as needed until the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).
Step 7
Remove chicken from the grill and cover with foil. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.
Step 8
In a small sauce pan, heat the remaining apricot sauce with Chicken Broth (160 mL) . Stir and simmer until thickened.
Step 9
Serve sauce over the grilled chicken. Enjoy!
