Grilled Honey-Glazed Chicken With Roasted Grapes

"A co-worker gave me this recipe, so I thought I would post it for safe-keeping. This is a grilled chicken breast with honey and orange peel glaze served with roasted garlic and roasted grapes with a wedge of blue cheese. I have not tried it yet, but it sounds different and delicious."

directions

  • Place chicken in a large resealable plastic bag. In a small bowl, combine the 1 tbs. vinegar, 2 tbs. oil, minced garlic, 1/4 teaspoons salt and pepper. Pour over chicken, seal bag and turn to thoroughly coat chicken. Marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes.
  • In another small bowl, whisk together remaining 1 tbs. vinegar, honey, orange peel and 1/4 teaspoons remaining salt. Set aside.
  • Separate and peel 6 cloves garlic. Place on an 8-inch square of heavy aluminum foil and drizzle with remaining 1 tbs. olive oil. Wrap foil around garlic and seal.
  • For a charcoal grill, arrange preheated coals around a drip pan. Test for medium heat above the pan. Remove chicken from bag and discard marinade. Place chicken, skin-side down on the grill rack over the drip pan. Place garlic packet next to chicken. Cover and grill for 10 minutes. Remove garlic packet and set aside to cool. Turn chicken skin-side up and brush with some of the honey mixture. Cover and grill until chicken's internal temperature registers 170 F., brushing occassionally with honey mixture up until last 5 minutes of grilling.
  • For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Adjust heat for indirect cooking. Place chicken skin-side down on grill rack on unlit side. Cover and grill as above.
  • Meanwhile, drizzle grapes with honey. Place grapes on grill rack over coals or heat. Cover and grill for 2-3 minutes or until browned and softened, turning once.
  • Remove chicken and grapes from grill to serving plates. Serve with cheese topped with garlic and drizzled with honey.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>My name is Rebecca, but my family and friends call me Becky. I am&nbsp;33 years old and live in Rochester, New York, USA. I am a life-long resident of Western New York and can't say as I'd ever want to live anywhere else. I grew up on a small dairy farm in rural Western New York and love country living. Although my husband and I live in a suburb right now, we hope someday to move back to our roots and live a peaceful country life. <br /><br />My husband and I have been married for 10 years.&nbsp; We have a beautiful 5-year-old&nbsp;daughter and a 3-year-old&nbsp;son.&nbsp;&nbsp;I am amazed at how quickly our kids are&nbsp;growing and developing.&nbsp; I read a lot about and hold my own personal skepticism regarding the affects of additives such as&nbsp;preservatives,&nbsp;hormones, artificial colorings, artificial sweeteners, caffeine, allergens, etc.&nbsp; With the increasing number of children and adults with food allergies, I am suspicious that the last century&nbsp;of our nation's food industry improvements have contributed.&nbsp; I'm doing the best I can to protect my family&nbsp;from the risks, but it is difficult to avoid every additive.&nbsp; I have friends and family with food allergies and know how difficult it is to cope with food restrictions. I enjoy the challenge of&nbsp;cooking for those with food allergies but can't imagine making it an every-day affair.</p> 8727502"
