Zubereitung von Apricot Honey Grilled Chicken
- Preheat your gas grill to medium heat, or prepare your charcoal grill until the coals are ash white.
- In a 1-quart saucepan, melt 1/4 cup of butter over medium heat until it sizzles.
- Add 1/2 cup of chopped onion to the saucepan.
- Cook the onion over medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in 1 cup apricot preserves, 1/2 cup honey, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard.
- Set the glaze aside.
- In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes.
- Rub the spice mixture evenly onto both sides of 4 (6-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts.
- Place the chicken breasts on the preheated grill.
- Grill the chicken for approximately 6-8 minutes per side, or until the chicken is no longer pink and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork. Brush with the glaze during the last 5 minutes of grilling.
- While the chicken grills, cook the remaining glaze in a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat until it comes to a gentle boil, stirring constantly. This will thicken the glaze slightly.
- Serve the chicken immediately, drizzled with the warm apricot honey glaze. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
