    We absolutely loved this chicken. I used drumsticks and let it marinate for 3 hours. It didn't take as long for the chicken to cook. We will make these many times, as it is a recipe that doesn't require many ingredients. Thank you so much for sharing this yummy chicken recipe with us, we will be making again.

    This was a keeper. It was too cold to grill outside so I cooked them on 400, and then finished them under the broiler for 3 minutes to crisp the skin. The chicken was very juicy.

    I LOVED the blend of spices.. Like one of the reviewrs said I too wasnt sure of the end result.I thought it would be dry .. But it was moist and juicy..I used tender drumstick pieces of chicken. I made a few alterations. I added 1 tsp of dry red chilly flakes to the marinate as I wanted mine to be a lil more spicy. I made slits through the chicken pieces so that the marinate seeps through to get that complete flavour. marinated for about five hours and grilled it on 2 for around 25 mins(I used tender chicken thats why it took lesser cooking time). But on the whol;e i loved the grilled chicken. would definitly recommend it to others.I guess next time i would try using honey instead of sugar..Will let u know how that turns out the next time i make it...Thanx a bunch Rita...
