GRILLED CHICKEN WITH WHITE BARBECUE SAUCE



Grilled Chicken With White Barbecue Sauce image

This recipe from Cooking Light was surprisingly easy to prepare and very flavorful. I had never had a "white" barbecue sauce and was pleasantly surprised at the taste. Since grilled chicken is a summertime staple for me I will be making this sauce in a bigger batch and refrigerating in bottles. The spicy "vinegary" taste goes very well with the grilled chicken. Feel free to adjust the spices in the sauce.
