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

Directions

  • Cut chicken leg quarters at the joint without cutting all the way through. Arrange chicken on a baking dish.
  • 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.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Coat chicken with olive oil.
  • Bake in preheated oven until browned, about 45 minutes. Chicken will not be cooked through.
  • Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • 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.
  • 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).
