    This recipe is fantastic. Any type of rum will do. Also, I don't have a grill, so I just stick the whole thing in a baking dish and broil it for 10-15 minutes. I keep all of the marinade juice with the chicken in the baking dish so that nothing dries out. Delicioso!

    The marinade was excellent. It was perfect for the chicken, however, the recommended cooking time of 10 minutes per side was way way off. It came out like shoe leather. Next time I will reduce the cooking time substantially and I know I will have a winner.

    My children helped me make it. Plus, they loved it and requested it again.

    I have made this recipe many times.. I have done it with boneless & bone in.. Great both ways! I think the haters to this recipe might have done it wrong or something. My family & friends have dubbed this chicken, "Marissa's Chica Chicken!" Thanks Ingrid!

    I am accustomed to and cook a lot of latino foods. While the ingredients seemed exciting and the recipe simple enough, the results were so-so. I agree with the review of it being a waste of good dark rum. However, I will hold on to the recipe since it was pretty quick and easy and I'm a "tweaker". Maybe, I'll figure out a way to "tweak" this recipe and make it better. If I succeed, I'll post it.

    I made this out of her cookbook - available before the episode aired - and I thought it was excellent. I basted while grilling to add more flavor. Also, it seems like there are one or two people posting anonymously over and over using the same catchwords while giving negative reviews (some not even reviewing the recipe at all. Sour grapes much? What, did she get the job you were up for at FoodTV?

    I had really hoped to prove the negative reviews wrong but after following the recipe exactly (except I used Splenda brown sugar, marinating for several hours, and basting while cooking it was just ok. I was surprised after all that there wasn't much flavor in the chicken but it was juicy and tender. I will try again with real brown sugar and try to make the marinade thicker. Maybe less rum? I love Ingrid's show and personality and will try more of her recipes! This was my first of hers.

    Tried this recipe for a Memorial Day cookout and was a huge success! Lots of great citrus flavor and the worch. sauce gave it extra punch. Will definiely make again and will also try her quinoa salad.
    Thanks, Ingrid for some very different and interesting recipes.

    I never really review on here, and I know I shouldn't just rate the bad ones, but this merits conversation. It was flat out awful. It was as easy as it says, but there are far too many conflicting strong flavors. Keep away!!

    This was delicious, I have no clue why others did not enjoy it. Just use chicken parts (bone in and more garlic if you want more flavor. I think Ingrid is wonderful and she has some great ideas.
