1/4 cup cherry all fruit spread (I used Polaner)
1/4 cup orange marmalade
1-1/2 teaspoons soy sauce
2-3 teaspoons bourbon
olive oil
1 pound chicken tenders
salt and pepper (if desired)


In a small saucepan add both fruits, soy sauce, and 2 teaspoons bourbon.

Heat on low until begins to bubble.  Cook for 3-5 minutes or until slightly thickened.  If you wish for more bourbon flavor add the extra teaspoon after you have turned the heat off.

Put chicken in a small bowl, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper.  Grill until fully cooked.

Top chicken with cherry citrus glaze (you may need to re-warm a bit to loosen it up) and serve with your favorite side dish.  I chose my wild rice pilaf.
