Lemonade Chicken

Lemonade Chicken

1 can (12 ounces) frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
3/4 teaspoon minced fresh mint or 1/4 teaspoon dried mint
4 pounds bone-in chicken breast halves (8 ounces each)

Directions:
Mix all of the ingredients together and divide in half.  Place the chicken in a ziploc bag with half of the marinade, and reserve the other half in a ziploc bag.  Freeze both bags, or keep in fridge up to 2 days.  

From frozen: Thaw at least 24 hours in fridge (or on defrost setting in microwave)

To Grill Chicken:
Drain and discard marinade. Grill, covered, over medium heat for 10 minutes on each side, basting occasionally with reserved marinade. Grill 5-10 minutes longer or until chicken juices run clear; basting and turning several times.

For Crockpot:
Place chicken and all marinade in the crockpot. Cook on low for 5 - 6 hours.
