Honey Basil Chicken

Recipe By : The Junior League of Denver Cookbook-Colorado College
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Chicken

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 cup raspberry vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon pepper -- or to taste
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves

Combine vinegar, mustard, soy sauce, honey, basil, thyme &
pepper in a plastic ziplock bag. Add chicken & turn to coat. Marinate at
room temp for 15 min. ( I marinated it in the refrigerator all day). Grill
chicken, reserving marinade, 10 - 15 minutes or until
thoroughly cooked.

If desired, transfer marinade to a saucepan. Boil until reduced by
half & pour over chicken (None of us used the extra marinade;
we thought the chicken was great by itself.)

The chicken can also be baked at 350F for 40 minutes.
