Five Great Glazes For All!

I love glazes! These are meant for a rotisserie chicken specifically, but they are a great way to spice up any dish that doesn't seem to have much flare. Sweet, spicy and savory, please enjoy all!
(Taken from a book I love, "Fast Weeknight Favorites: 200 Really Quick, Simply Delicious Recipes by Good Housekeeping).
