Grilled Chicken with Apricot-Balsamic Glaze

I suggest buying two whole chickens, about 4 pound each, and cutting them into parts yourself. Packaged chicken parts often vary greatly in size, making it hard to get the pieces done at the same time. For a compromise, look in your butcher's display case for bone-in parts that are about the same size--legs about 5 ounces each, thighs about 6 ounces, and breast halves a little more than a pound each.
