Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 2h30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup cherries, dark sweet, fresh or fozen (thawed), pitted and chopped
1/2 cup chicken broth, reduced-sodium
1/3 cup cherry preserves
1/3 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons chipotle peppers, minced canned in adobo sauce, (or more) to taste
1 1/4 teaspoons dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
2 lbs chicken breasts, boneless, skinless

Steps:

  • Stir cherries, broth, preserves, ketchup, vinegar, chipotle peppers, thyme and allspice in a small deep bowl. Transfer to a shallow non-reactive dish or sealable bag, large enough to hold chicken. Add the chicken and turn to coat well. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, overnight is better.
  • Preheat grill to high. Oil the grill by placing folded paper towel in tongs and rub it over the racks. Remover chicken from the marinade. Transfer the narinade to a medium skillet.
  • Reduce the grill heat to medium and grill the chicken until cooked through and no longer pink in the middle, 7 to 9 minutes per side. Meanwhile, bring the marinade to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until the sauce is reduced by about half, 12 to 15 minutes. Let the chicken cool slightly; serve with the sauce.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made a big batch of grilled chicken on the weekend and used it to make this dish on Monday night. It was quick and easy, and the whole family loved it.

The sauce is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still a good recipe. I'll just use less sugar next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out really watery. I think I'll try using less liquid next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken came out a little dry. I think I'll try cooking it for a shorter amount of time next time.

I'm not a big fan of BBQ sauce, but this one was really good. It had a nice smoky flavor and wasn't too sweet.

I love the smoky flavor that the cherry Chipotle BBQ sauce gives to the chicken. It's a great change from the usual BBQ sauce.

This recipe was a hit at my last BBQ! The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and spicy. I'll definitely be making this again.
