This is so good! Try it you'll like it!!! I made up this recipe several years ago for a back yard grilling picnic. It was a big hit! In the time section: I put 20 minutes in the prep time for assembling and cooking the sauce. The cooking time, is for the chicken breasts. The alcohol cooks off and just leaves the great flavor! Enjoy!

Using a sauce mop or brush, coat the chicken with the sauce. Turn chicken over and coat it again. Do this every minute or two until the chicken is done.
