Recipe from Better Homes and Garden
4 chicken breast halves, about 2 pounds total
1/2 cup Dijon style mustard
3 tbsp vinegar
4 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp snipped fresh thyme or 1/8 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
2 tbsp light-flavored molasses
Remove skin from chicken. Rinse chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Place chicken in a plastic bag in a shallow dish; set aside. For marinade, stir together mustard, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and thyme until smooth. Pour marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag and turn to coat the chicken with marinade. Chill for 4 to 24 hours, turning the bag occasionally. Drain the chicken, reserving marinade. Measure 1/3 cup marinade; set aside to use to make the sauce. In a grill with a cover, arrange medium-hot coals around a drip pan. Test for medium heat above the drip pan. Place the chicken pieces, bone side down, on the grill rack over the drip pan but not over the coals. Cover and grill for 50 to 60 minutes or until tender and no longer pink, brushing occasionally with remaining marinade. (Do not brush during the last 5 minutes of grilling.) Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the 1/3 cup reserved marinade and the molasses. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 5 minutes. Pass sauce with chicken. Makes 4 servings.
