12 oz. container frozen apple juice concentrate thawed (about 3/4 cup)2 tsps ground cinnamon
1/3 cup honey 3 large Granny Smith apples cored and cut into thick rings

Instructions for Grilled Apple Chicken

Preheat grill to medium (if using gas grill), or until charcoal is covered with gray ash and is medium-hot.

In a small saucepan, combine apple juice concentrate, honey, lemon juice, brown sugar and cinnamon; mix well. Heat over medium heat until sugar is dissolved (about 3 minutes). Set aside 1 cup of mixture to serve as sauce; use remaining for basting. Arrange apple rings on grill and brush with basting sauce. Grill for 8 minutes, basting often. Turn apple rings over, baste again and grill for 8 to 10 minutes or until tender, basting often. Meanwhile, place chicken on grill. Brush with basting sauce. Grill for 5 minutes (10 minutes if frozen), basting often. Turn chicken over and baste again. Basting often, grill for 5 to 7 minutes more (10 to 15 minutes if frozen) or until internal juices run clear. Discard leftover basting sauce.

Serve chicken and apples with reserved sauce.
