Number Of Ingredients 16

6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2/3 cup dark beer or nonalcoholic dark beer
1/3 cup orange juice
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 small onion, chopped (1/3 cup)
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
2 cups orange juice
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/3 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/3 cup ketchup
3 tablespoons molasses
1 to 2 teaspoons finely chopped chipotle chiles in adobo sauce (from 7-oz can)

Stir in desired amount of chiles. Set aside.
  • Remove chicken from marinade; discard marinade. Place chicken on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 15 to 20 minutes, turning once or twice and brushing with glaze during last 2 minutes of grilling, until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (at least 165°F).
  • Heat any remaining glaze to boiling; boil and stir 1 minute. Serve with chicken.
