Breast halves (4 oz each)
For the sauce:
1/4 c Reduced-sodium ketchup

Barbecued Chicken Preparation

Preparation time: 10 minutes Cooking time 15 to 20 minutes Preheat broiler, heat a charcoal grill until coals form white ash, or preheat a gas grill to medium. To prepare sauce, in a small saucepan, combine ketchup, vinegar, horseradish, brown sugar, garlic, and thyme. Mix well. Bring to a boil over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in pepper. Brush tops of chicken pieces lightly with sauce. Place chicken, sauce-side down, on a foil-lined broiler pan or grill rack. Brush other sides lightly with sauce. Broil or grill 3 inches from heat, basting with remaining sauce and turning until no longer pink in center, about 5 to 7 minutes per side. Let chicken stand for 5 minutes before serving. Short Cut: When time is short, omit the sauce. Instead, use 1/2 cup of ready-made reduced-sodium barbecue sauce mixed with a little cider vinegar, or red-wine vinegar, or white horseradish. Proceed as directed.

A special wire brush works well for scrubbing; it can be found at supermarkets or hardware shops. Chicken must be seared over a hot grill before turning or the skin will stick to the grill. Turn seeral times throughout cooking and baste with each turn. While cooking on a grill, use long-handled tongs to turn the chicken pieces. A fork would pierce the meat and allow the flavorful juices to escape. MM Norma Wrenn Source: Healthy Meals in Minutes Promotional card Posted to MM-Recipes Digest V4 #300 by Deborah K
