So easy and flavorful! I am always looking for make ahead recipes I can just throw on the grill when I get home from work, and this fits the bill. Last wek I froze one in the marinade and put it in the fridge the night before I cooked it, turned out wonderfully!08/05/08

served it with the soba noodle salad from the same issue...the only thing I did change was I only marinated it 12 hours rather then overnight due to the high acid content of the marinade and it still imparted a lot of flavor07/13/08
