Method

Mix the tomato sauce and 2 Tbsp of the grilling blend in a big re-sealable bag. Set aside 1/4 cup of the marinade to use as a baste. Slip the chicken into the bag, seal, and refrigerate for a few hours (or overnight for more flavor). Before grilling, combine everything else in a bowl and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to blend flavors. Fire up your grill (preferably charcoal) to medium. Remove chicken from bag and sprinkle with remaining 1 Tbsp grilling blend. Grill the chicken, turning and basting with reserved marinade a few times, about 10 minutes. It's done when no longer pink in center of thickest part and juices run clear (about 160 F on an instant read thermometer). Serve with the orange-pineapple salsa.
