Apricot Lime Grilled Chicken

1 C B & R Farms Dreid Apricot Preserves

3 garlic cloves, chopped

1/3 C fresh lime juice

4 t low sodium soy sauce

4 skinless/boneless chicken breasts (approx. 1.5 lbs)

2 T light brown sugar

3 T pineapple juice

1 t apple cider vinegar

1/4 t allspice

1 each: nectarines & plums*, chopped

1/2 C pitted cherries, chopped

Fresh cilantro

Blend preserves, garlic, lime juice & soy sauce in small bowl & set aside 1/2 C for later use. Pour remaining marinade in large resealable bag and add chicken, tossing to coat.  Seal and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.

Mix sugar, pineapple juice, vinegar & allspice in a medium bowl.  Add fruit, toss to coat, cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Place chicken on grill (direct, medium heat), discarding marinade in bag.  Cook chicken 18-20 minutes (turning halfway through cooking), occasionally brushing with reserved marinade.  Continue grilling until internal temperature reaches 165F.  Place chicken on platter and top with prepared fruit mixture & cilantro leaves.  Serves 4.  *It's easy to subsitute with other summer stone fruit such as apricots or peaches.
