List of 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:


Recipe

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.

The temperature should be medium-hot. 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.
