Smoked Paprika Italian chicken

This Smoked Chicken (rub) is so amazing! The spices are perfect and you can taste them in the meat itself. I had to stop myself at 3 pieces or I would of kept eating it, They are that good! I will be making this recipe a LOT to take to work. You can also Bake, Fry or grill, these are smoked, the spice is out of this world! No more KFC for me!~

How do you keep your chicken Moist?

1. Coat your chicken in olive oil, not only does this allow your spices to stick to your chicken, but it also will make your chicken moist and tender.
