Image Step 01
01 Step

Recipe View Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat (around 375-400°F) and lightly oil the grate. This prevents the chicken from sticking and ensures even cooking. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02 Step

Recipe View In a medium bowl, whisk together the apple jelly, honey, Dijon mustard, cinnamon, and salt until well combined. This creates the flavorful glaze that will caramelize beautifully on the chicken. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

03 Step

Recipe View Generously brush the chicken breasts with the apple honey glaze, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. Reserve some glaze for basting during grilling. (Prep time: 3 minutes)

04 Step

Recipe View Place the glazed chicken breasts on the preheated grill. Cook, occasionally brushing with the reserved glaze, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center. This usually takes about 10-12 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the chicken. (Cook time: 20-24 minutes)

Image Step 05
05 Step

Recipe View To ensure the chicken is fully cooked, insert an instant-read thermometer into the thickest part of the breast. It should read at least 165°F (74°C). (Check time: 1 minute)

Image Step 06
06 Step

Recipe View Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chicken. (Rest time: 5 minutes)

For an even deeper flavor, marinate the chicken in the glaze for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours) before grilling.
If you don't have a grill, you can bake the chicken in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through, basting with the glaze during baking.
Serve with a side of roasted vegetables, quinoa, or a fresh salad for a complete and balanced meal.
Feel free to adjust the amount of honey or Dijon mustard to suit your taste preferences. A pinch of red pepper flakes can add a nice touch of heat.

    I tried baking the chicken in the oven and it turned out great! The glaze caramelized beautifully and the chicken was so tender.
