This recipe is absolutey one of my favorite. I get RAVE reviews everytime I fix this chicken for a party. Often time I double the recipe so I can make it for about 10 people. I make the rub and use chicken tenderloins (no skin, no bones). I dredge the chicken in the rub, put it all in a big ziploc and keep it in the "fridge" sometimes as long as 24 hours. It is so tender after marinating so long. Once on the grill the tenderloins grill in about 11-12 minutes. I typically make this chicken with macaroni salad and fruit salad. DELICIOUS!!! A MUST MAKE!!! Your guests will LOVE THIS!!09/05/09

This was very good. I did need to watch that it didn't cook too quickly and make the skin blacken too much. The sauce was great although I did up the horse radish I bit.07/22/09
