Smoky chipotle peppers make this quick, citrusy barbecue sauce special. Try this recipe with shrimp or pork chops on the grill as well. Serve with Quinoa & Black Beans and fruit sorbet for dessert.

Makes 2 servings

ACTIVE TIME: 10 minutes

TOTAL TIME: 20 minutes

EASE OF PREPARATION: Easy

1 tablespoon orange juice concentrate, thawed
1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped chipotle chiles in adobo sauce (see Note)
1 1/2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon molasses
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, trimmed of fat (8 ounces)
1/8 teaspoon salt

1. Preheat grill or broiler to high. Lightly oil the rack.
2. Whisk orange juice concentrate, chiles, vinegar, molasses and mustard in a small bowl.
3. Sprinkle chicken with salt. Grill or broil the chicken for 2 minutes. Turn the chicken, brush with the chipotle-orange glaze, and cook, brushing occasionally with more of the glaze, 4 minutes more. Turn the chicken again, brush with the glaze, and cook until no longer pink in the middle, 2 to 5 minutes more.
