Where Grilling and Glazing Go Wrong Here's what usually happens when you try for a deep sear and a substantial glaze. BURNT GLAZE, BLAND MEAT: Layer on glaze from the get-go and it tends to burn. The chicken may be moist, but it lacks flavorful browning. NICE GLAZE, DRY MEAT: If you wait to apply the sauce, you'll get good browning and a substantial glaze but dry, overcooked chicken. Technique The Power of Milk Powder To make sure that our chicken breasts could be both browned and glazed in the time it took the chicken to cook, we had to accelerate browning. A surprising ingredient-milk powder-was the solution. Milk powder contains both protein and so called reducing sugar (in this case, lactose), the keys to the Maillard reaction, the chemical process that causes browning. Faster browning gave us more time to layer on the glaze.
