Directions

Ingredients :

4 chicken leg quarters

1 tablespoon New Mexico chile powder

1 teaspoon ancho chile powder

1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon garlic powder

1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt

½ teaspoon ground black pepper

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 (12.5 fl oz) can mango nectar

¼ cup dark rum

¼ cup orange juice

1 lime, juiced

1 tablespoon honey

2 teaspoons chile paste

Methods :

Step 1

Cut chicken leg quarters at the joint without cutting all the way through. Arrange chicken on a baking dish.

Step 2

Mix New Mexico chile powder, ancho chile powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, kosher salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Rub chile powder mixture over chicken. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.

Step 3

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Coat chicken with olive oil.

Step 4

Bake in preheated oven until browned, about 45 minutes. Chicken will not be cooked through.

Step 5

Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 6

Heat mango nectar, rum, orange juice, lime juice, honey, and chile paste in a skillet over medium-high heat. Simmer until thickened, about 10 minutes. Brush mango glaze over chicken legs.

Step 7

Grill chicken on preheated grill until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 10 to 15 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
