This wet rub has a citrus flavor from the different types of juice and zest. This combined with a great selection of spices gives whatever you're preparing a great flavor. Remember that letting it marinade a while helps the flavors to blend and give the paste time to thicken. Make it hot by using a hot chili powder.
