APRICOT GLAZED CHICKEN BREASTS
A simple and quick main dish designed for busy nights or cooking novices. Add a steamed vegetable and rice and a tasty dinner is on the table in 30 minutes or less. I like to include the hot sauce not to make this a spicy dish but to cut the sweetness just a bit. Planning to try this on the grill this summer as it should work very well. (WW 4 pts)

Steps:
- Preheat the broiler. Line the broiler pan with aluminum foil. (The foil is a must for quick clean up.) Spray the broiler-pan rack with nonstick vegetable cooking spray.

- Season the chicken breasts with the thyme and salt and pepper. Arrange the chicken breasts, skin side down, on the prepared pan and broil 4 to 6 inches from the heat for 5 minutes. Turn and broil for 3 minutes. (If you are using larger chicken breasts, adjust the cooking time.)
- Brush each chicken breast with some of the fruit glaze and broil for 1 to 2 minutes, until the glaze is bubbly and the chicken is no longer pink in the thickest part. Turn the chicken (it should now be skin side up) and brush on the rest of the glaze an broil an additional minute.
- Remove from the broiler and serve.

Tips:

- Adjust the heat: If you find that the glaze is browning too quickly, reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Baste the chicken frequently: This will help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
- Let the chicken rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, resulting in a more tender and juicy dish.
- Serve with your favorite sides: Apricot mustard glazed chicken breasts pair well with rice, mashed potatoes, or roasted vegetables.
