Recipe Wednesday: Grilled Teriyaki Apricot Chicken


We went to my parents' house on Sunday, and they made some yummy teriyaki chicken!! I had to share the recipe! We LOVED it!! My mom made some modifications to the recipe she found. So this is pretty much her recipe. :)

Grilled Teriyaki Apricot Chicken
2 whole chicken breasts boned, skinned, split

Marinade:
4 Tablespoons reduced- sodium soy sauce
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
4 Tablespoons pineapple juice
2 Tablespoons white vinegar
Worcestershire sauce

Basting Sauce:
1/2 c. apricot preserves
1/4 c. white vinegar
1 Tablespoon pineapple juice
Worcestershire sauce

1.  Mix marinade ingredients together in glass bowl. Add chicken breasts and marinade overnight.

2. In small saucepan, bring basting sauce ingredients to a boil. Turn heat to low and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes.

3.  Preheat broiler or grill. Coat broiler pan with non-stick oil spray. Remove chicken from marinade and discard marinade.

4.  Broil or grill 4 inches from heat, basting at least 3 times on each side. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes per side or until cooked through. Serve immediately.

Serve with steamed green beans, fresh strawberries with light cool whip and brown rice (we mixed brown and white rice). 

Enjoy!
