I used my homemade brandied peach conserve instead of the peach preserves. It has slivered almonds and raisons. I skipped the mint in the relish and it was still very good.

This was so good, even broiled indoors. I tripled the glaze and could have halved the salsa (relish). Very fresh, very healthy!

Nice blend of different flavors. Needs a little more of the glaze. Very good!

Nice blend of different flavors. Needs a little more of the basting sauce.

I broiled the chicken, due to a lack of friendly BBQ weather, but it was just as delicious.
