Remove chicken from marinade, lightly dab with paper towel to remove excess moisture. Discard marinade.
For glaze: Soak the apricots in the boiling water, approximately 30 minute Remove apricots and squeeze out any excess moisture.
Place apricots, Grand Marnier, and Soy Sauce in Food Processor and blend till smooth.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Remove foil and bake an additional 20-30 minutes until meat thermometer, inserted thigh registers 165 degrees. Remove chicken halves from pan and keep warm.
