The chicken was good and went well with the sauce. I substituted apple butter for apple jelly, and the sauce turned out very tart. I think next time I'll try it with the jelly. The sugar in the jelly might neutralize the tartness of the grapefruit. -
This is an unusual, but very nice, way to prepare chicken. My dh was initially skeptical about the combination, but all of us enjoyed the meal. I used chicken tenderloins & must admit to not measuring the salt & thyme, just sprinkling it over the chicken in the frying pan. I found that one grapefruit was all that we needed, though I came up a bit short on juice.
