Blackened Chicken

1 Tbsp paprika
4 tsp sugar, divided
1 1/2 tsp salt, divided
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp lemon-pepper seasoning
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 1/2 to 2 tsp pepper, divided
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1 1/3 cups mayonnaise
2 Tbsp water
2 Tbsp cider vinegar

In a small bowl, combine paprika, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tsp salt, garlic powder, thyme, lemon-pepper, cayenne and 1/2 to 1 tsp pepper; sprinkle over both sides of chicken (Note: spices are potent!  Don't over coat.).  Set aside.  In another bowl, combine mayonnaise, water, vinegar and remaining sugar, salt and pepper; cover and chill 1 cup for serving.  Save remaining sauce for basting.

Grill chicken, covered, over indirect medium heat for 4-6 minutes on each side or until juices run clear, basting frequently with remaining sauce.  Serve with reserved sauce.
