There were some great compliments about the chicken at the hangar party. Most of the credit goes to our superlative chefs, Curtis and Larry, for their searing skill. The rest goes to this marinade. A little rum and lime juice improves anything!....Mitch and Jan

1/4 cup chopped fresh mint

1/4 cup rum (the recipe called for white, but I'm an unbiased person so I used gold)

2 tablespoons kosher salt

Finely chopped zest of 1 lime

Juice of three or four limes (about 1/2 cup)

1/3 cup sugar

Mix it all up, put the chicken in it for about 3-4 hours, and grill.
