"You don't need high-fat ingredients to make this grilled chicken taste good," says Julie DeMatteo of Clementon, New Jersey. "The marinade both flavors and tenderizes the meat."

it as really good. But next time, I want to save some of the marinated from the chicken, cook it to kill any bacteria from the chicken, and sprinkle it over the chicken when it's done grilling, before serving. When I grilled the chicken I lost some of the flavor of the marinated.

This is so flavorful. I am not good at

the charcoal grill, so I broiled it. I like to

serve it with Curried Pineapple Rice (Quick

Cooking), steamed broccoli, and Cocunut

Cream Pie (Quick Cooking) or Broiled

Bananas a la Mode (Taste of Home).

Heather 91286 If you read carefully, you will see brown sugar is the ingredient listed after the juice and that is the sugar they are referring to in the directions.

The recipe directions state there is sugar in this recipe but it's not included in the ingredients.
