Ingredients:

Serves 6

6 boneless chicken breast halves
17-oz. can dark sweet Bing cherries, drained
12-oz. can or bottle black cherry soda
2 Tbs. salt-free chicken grill blend
3 Tbs. cherry preserves
2 Tbs. lemon juice,
2 Tbs. olive oil
1 tsp. salt
1/4-tsp. cinnamon
1 Tbs. cornstarch
1 Tbs. water

Directions:

1. Pour one half of the soda into a big Ziplock bag. Set aside the rest.
   
2. Mix in the grilling blend, preserves, lemon juice, oil, salt and cinnamon.
   
3. Drop in the chicken. Seal the bag and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight.
   
4. Fire up the grill to medium.
   
5. Once the fire is ready, debag the chicken and grill, turning and basting with marinade a few times, for 10-15 minutes, or until the center is no longer pink and the juices run clear.
   
6. In a pot, boil the remaining marinade, the reserved soda, and the canned cherries over high heat on the stove (or on the burner attached to the grill).
   
7. In a cup dissolve the cornstarch in water. Stir into the cherry sauce and cook for 2 minutes, until slightly thickened.
   
8. Pour over the chicken and serve.
