Eden’s Nectar Bourbon-Glazed Chicken
Eden’s Nectar Bourbon-Glazed Chicken balances juicy grilled chicken with a bright, fruit-forward puree of mango and peach, lifted by rosemary, thyme, and a whisper of bourbon. Cedar plank grilling adds gentle smoke that deepens the caramel notes from brown sugar. Serve for a relaxed summer dinner on the patio or any time you want a subtly sweet, herb-kissed main.

Take the chicken out of the marinade and shake off the excess. Discard the remaining marinade. When the plank begins to smoke, place the chicken on the plank. Cook the chicken breasts until they are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Brush the chicken with the reserved marinade.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
