If you're looking to switch up the commonly slathered barbecue chicken this Fourth of July weekend, try Guy's sweet and spicy grilled chicken. A combination of pureed mango, cilantro, chipotle peppers, garlic and lemon creates lip-smacking chicken thighs and drumsticks that the whole family will love.

Editor's Note: Let the chicken marinate in the mixture the night before you plan on grilling your chicken to save you time.
