We just got back from vacation. We did the Luau at the Polynesian and loved the chicken so much that we asked our server how it was prepared. She came back with a printed recipe card. I did a quick search and didn't see it so I thought I'd share the "official" recipe.

Oh, and just for the record, I have made it as instructed, and also did it on the grill with direct and indirect heat (seared it over the coals, then moved it to the other side of the grill without coals)
