Heat oven to 375ºF. Spray rack in shallow roasting pan with nonstick cooking spray.

Rinse chicken inside and out with cold water; drain.

Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle chicken with garlic pepper blend; place chicken breast side up on sprayed rack in pan.

Bake at 375ºF for 1 hour. Brush chicken with preserves (I warmed my preserves up a little to make it easier to brush it on the chicken); bake an additional 35 to 45 minutes or until fork-tender and juices run clear.

Chicken is done when internal temp reaches 180ºF.

Let stand 5-10 minutes before serving. Serves 6.
