by Annevdw54, 3/23/2013Made this tonight for supper and it was AMAZING! Made the rub,spread over chicken and refrigerated for a few hours. The glaze was awesome and I doubled the recipe so I would have some left after glazing chicken for 6. Chicken was moist,taste was exotic and delicious.Great recipe and easy as pie to make.

by IL, 4/19/2011Chicken gets slightly charred due to the sugar in the spice blend and glaze. Kind of reminds me of a cajun blackened chicken. The glaze is delicious and could be eaten on its own. Overall, very tasty.
