We don't have a barbecue but this sounded too good to pass up. I baked the chicken in a 350 oven for an hour, covered, and turned the chicken over half way through. Glaze was not overly sweet and the dijon mustard taste came through nicely which I was happy with since I do not care for dijon.
I thought this sounded good, but I didn't want to grill in the winter. I tried baking my chicken (18 min, 375F, covered, rotated half-way) and it turned out great! I did double the amount of glaze, but kept the proportions the same and loved the flavor. Of course the jelly mixture melted a little, so I just spooned it on top before serving.
I chopped up an apple in my mini chopper with about 2T of apple juice instead of the apple jelly and I omitted the salt. It turned out great! Next time I'll use slightly more honey and slightly less apple, to make it more glaze like and so it will spread easier, but all in all, it came out fantastic and it's a keeper. Served with rice/mushrooms/egg (fried rice style) and steamed broccoli.
I made this recipe for the second time tonight; Both my girlfriend and I have loved it both times. Like other reviewers I baked it (350 40 minutes covered) as grilling isn't an option this time of year. Using the recipe as written there was more than enough glaze for three full chicken breasts. I used apple butter rather than jelly as it was what we had on hand and the glaze turned out delicious. This is becoming one of our go-to recipes when we need something simple.
I made this as written and was worried it would be too sweet but it tasted good. I was pleasantly surprised. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
This was great. I couldn't find apple jelly so I used Tart Michigan Cherry jelly (probably any jelly that you like would work) and baked in the oven at 350 for about an hour. I can't wait to try it when it's grilling weather!
We used Raspberry/Pomegranate Jelly instead of Apple, and loved it!
Excellent taste and easy to make
My husband loved this and said I wish you had made 4 chicken breasts instead of just two, then we could have had leftovers. I amended the recipe slightly based on some of the other reviews. I had red plum jelly in the fridge, so I used that instead of apple. I melted the jelly in the microwave just a bit, to make it easier to glaze the chicken. Hubby grilled in on the gas grill, we heated up the glaze to make it safe to eat and used it as a sauce. Yum, yum, good!!
I did not care for this recipe.
