  • 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons ground coriander

Grill, covered with grill lid, until the skin is crispy and a thermometer inserted in thickest portion of thighs registers 165°F, about 1 hour, 40 minutes. Remove from grill; rest 10 minutes. Carefully remove cans; cut chickens into quarters.
