Maple-Glazed Chicken

If you like spicy with a mix of sweetness, you will want to check out this chicken out for sure! I got this recipe from Weight Watcher's Make It in Minutes Cookbook, but made a few changes.

Ingredients

1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp black pepper
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 2 lbs)
2 tbsp light or low-sugar maple syrup
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp Dijon mustard

Directions

-Preheat grill or oven to 500 degrees. If using the oven, coat a baking sheet with nonstick spray. If using the grill, you could spray and use a sheet aluminum foil, or just put it on the grates. It is up to you.
-Combine the paprika, salt, cinnamon, cumin, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub the mixture on the chicken breasts, so the meat is completely covered. Place the chicken on the sheet/grates. Bake/grill 15 minutes.
-While that cooks, combine the syrup, butter, and mustard in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring often, until the butter melts and mixture is combined.
-After the chicken bakes for 15 minutes, brush it with the maple glaze every 5 minutes for so until the chicken in fully cooked.

*I like to serve it with the cilantro lime rice found on this website or garlic-y egg noodles (my husbands recipe).
