My son's a great cook who came up with this rub on his own. It's one of our very favorite ways to prepare chicken because it's nice and zesty.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's just because I don't like spicy food very much. Other than that, the chicken was cooked perfectly and the blackened seasoning was very flavorful.
