I must tell you about my dinner we had the other night. I made this fabulous chicken dinner. I used the same recipe that I used for that Island Pork Tenderloin that I told you about, and turned it into an exotic BBQ chicken dish. I mixed up the spice mix, rubbed it all over the chicken, and then put it on the BBQ. It cooked up quickly and then
I glazed it with the brown sugar sauce.
And again, I used the brown sugar Splenda.

Look how juicy it is.
I used both chicken breast and chicken thigh meat.
The Hubby prefers breast,
but I'm a thigh kind of girl! ;-)

I served it up with my fresh Mango Salsa because, well... because I think everything goes better with my fresh Mango Salsa. Fresh asparagus (it's a bargan right now) and shrimp cocktails rounded out this meal which I will say again,... was spectacular!!!
