Maple Glazed Chicken Breasts

Ingredients

• 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 1/2 cup Grade B Amber maple syrup (Grade A Dark Amber would be okay too.)
• 1/4 cup chicken broth
• 2 tbs Worcestershire sauce
• Melted butter
• 1 tbs salt
• 1 tbs freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tbs lemon pepper

Procedure

1. Combine maple syrup, sauce, and broth in a small saucepan over medium high heat. Bring to a boil and cook until reduced by 1/3. Set aside.
2. Combine salt, pepper, and lemon pepper. Brush chicken with melted butter and press seasoning mixture into both sides of each chicken breast.
3. Place chicken in a shallow roasting pan. Insert a probe thermometer into one of the pieces and bake at 375 until internal temperature reaches 160 degrees.
4. Brush top of chicken pieces with maple mixture. Remove while your broiler heats up.
5. Place chicken under your preheated broiler until top is well browned and slightly charred.
6. Remove to a plate and cover with aluminum foil. Let rest 7 minutes before serving with remaining maple mixture.
