MARINATED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH A HONEY-RUM GLAZE
For this recipe, chicken thighs are marinated in citrus juices, warm spices that impart an earthy, warm tone and a bit of rum for a smooth caramel-like finish. And then the chicken is grilled to perfection and topped with a warm honey-rum glaze for an added depth of exotic island flavor. I wasn't able to grill the chicken due...

Steps:
- 1. Place all of the marinade ingredients into a gallon-size plastic ziplock bag, and shake well to combine. Add chicken thighs, shake well to coat all thighs with marinade. Place in refrigerator to marinate 6 to 8 hours, turning occasionally if possible.
- 2. Prepare outdoor grill for medium-high heat; brush vegetable oil on grate.
- 3. Remove thighs from bag, and discard the marinade.
- 4. Grill the thighs over medium-high heat with smooth-side down for about 3 to 5 minutes or until grill marks show. Turn, and grill another 3 minutes more. Keep cooking, turning every 2 minutes, until done and juices run clear, about 11 to 14 minutes total (depending on heat level and thickness of thighs).
- 5. For the Honey-Rum Glaze, place honey, lime zest, orange zest, orange juice, allspice, ginger and paprika in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, and heat in microwave for 30-45 seconds or until very warm to the touch. Remove bowl from microwave and stir in the rum. Spoon the Honey-Rum Glaze over the chicken thighs, and serve immediately.
