Grilled Chicken With Cherries

Kree's Note:

I got this off the DIY network website, and I'm storing it here so I can give it a try! I'm sure the cherry glaze would be equally good on baked chicken.

I had a package of dried cherries someone gave me so I thought what the hey. When I first made the sauce I changed my mind and thought; never again. You add this sauce to the chicken and oh WOW is it fantastic!!!! Now, I am not one for using salt which I did not instead I used Emeril's Essence that I make by hand omitting half the salt when I do. I placed it on both sides of the chicken before grilling. I will absolutely make this again!

Made for Zaartag. Good and different recipe. I didn't use the butter though, I never saw where I was supposed to use it in the directions. I thought it may go in the sauce, but I didn't use it since it wasn't listed. Quick, fast, and tasty! Thanks!
