Nice, I only had time to marinate it for maybe 5 hours, but quite tasty. I squeezed the lime wedges over it which had the unfortunate effect of drowning out much of the taste. Served it on a bed of Latchy's Moroccan rice (#82603), worked nicely.

Very good! I followed the recipe exactly as listed and marinated it for almost 24 hours. It was a big hit at our house. Great flavour combination.
