In searching for a grilled chicken recipe, this one caught my eye...due to the orange marmalade! I had a jar in the fridge that wasn't disappearing, so this looked like a good way to use it up. I made a good choice! Very good! I processed the marmalade so it was smooth, and it tasted so good in the glaze. Thank's for posting!

Made these on my indoor gril and used these for chicken salad - Mmmmmm good!!! Marinated the breasts for about 24 hours. Makes for very tasty and tender chicken! Thanks Parsley!

The marinade is wonderful and the end result is moist, well seasoned chicken. I used boneless chicken breasts. Everything for the marinade was put into the blender container and blended well and the chicken was ready to grill in 4 hours. This was served with <a href="/93148">Sesame Rice</a>, <a href="/189279">Asparagus With Sesame Oil Vinaigrette</a> and glazed baby carrots.
