I let these marinate overnight and the flavor was exceptional. I did prefer to cook these longer than called for until the meat was golden and still a bit juicy. I prefer my meat drier.

This was so good and so easy to make! We ate it for dinner, but it would be an awesome appetizer as well. I served it with Pet’s Parmesan Lemon Rice (#45227) and used your satay sauce from your other recipe. Our three year old asked for seconds! I will definitely make this again! Thanks Watermelon!!
