Ingredients
* 1/4 cup apricot fruit spread (I use Polaners) * 1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes * 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (4 oz each) * Coarse salt and pepper
Directions
1. Heat broiler, with rack set 4 inches from heat. In a small bowl, stir together jam and red-pepper flakes; set glaze aside.
2. Place chicken on an aluminum-foil-lined baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Broil until chicken begins to turn opaque, 5 to 6 minutes.
3. Brush glaze on chicken. Broil until glaze is browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of chicken registers 165 degrees, 4 to 5 minutes more.

    This is pretty good, but very sweet. I added some craisins. I suggest to serve it with a side that can dilute the super sweet taste, maybe some cheese or veggie ravilois...? - 5/21/09
