- Marinade:

- Salsa:
- Toss all salsa ingredients together in a medium bowl. Refrigerate 1 - 12 hours before serving.
- Grilling:
- Remove chicken from refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling.
- Prepare gas or charcoal grill for medium heat.
- While grill is heating make glaze by combining all glaze ingredients in a small bowl. Mix well. Set aside.
- Grill chicken 1-hour, or until cooked throughout, turning occasionally. Chicken is done when juices run clear when pierced with a fork, or instant read thermometer registers at least 175 degrees in thickest part of thigh. During last 10 minutes of grilling brush chicken with glaze. Grill 4 minutes. Repeat glazing and grilling for other side. Remove from heat. Keep warm.
- To Serve:
- Divide salsa between four plates. Arrange chicken pieces over salsa. Garnish with fresh cilantro sprigs, if desired. Serve immediately.
