Ingredients

6 chicken thighs
2 teaspoons garlic powder
salt and ground black pepper to taste
6 cloves garlic, crushed
⅓ cup honey
¼ cup water

Ingredients

2 pounds chicken thighs
MARINADE
3 Tbsp brown sugar
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 Tbsp aged dark rum
1 Tbsp orange juice
1 Tbsp lime juice
2 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp ground allspice
1/4 tsp paprika
1 bay leaves
HONEY-RUM GLAZE
1/2 cup honey
1 tsp lime zest
1 tsp orange zest
2 Tbsp orange juice
2 Tbsp aged dark rum
1/8 tsp ground allspice
1/8 tsp ground ginger
1/8 tsp paprika

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.
