Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 small garlic clove, minced
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Heat grill. In small bowl, stir together all glaze ingredients.
  • Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Brush chicken generously with glaze. Place chicken on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6-inches from medium coals; cover grill.
  • Cook 8-12 minutes or until juices run clear, turning once and brushing occasionally with glaze.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Use bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts or thighs for the best flavor and texture.
  • Make sure the chicken is fully cooked: Cook the chicken to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure that it is safe to eat.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
  • Use a good quality barbecue sauce: The barbecue sauce is the key to the flavor of this dish, so choose a sauce that you really like.
  • Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes: This will help the chicken to absorb the flavors of the marinade.
  • Grill the chicken over medium heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from burning.
  • Baste the chicken with barbecue sauce during the last few minutes of cooking: This will help to caramelize the sauce and give the chicken a nice glaze.

Conclusion:

Maple glazed barbecue chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you are grilling in the backyard or cooking in the kitchen, this recipe is sure to be a hit. Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as coleslaw, potato salad, or grilled vegetables.
