This was a good marinade. It would likely be even better if I had all the ingredients it required. I didn't seem to have limes. I bought them at the same time I bought the oranges for juice. I vividly remember putting them in my cart. What happened to them? I didn't know.
Then the day after I made this recipe I found the limes in my trunk. They escaped the bag apparently. Which explains why I had an empty produce bag in one of my grocery bags as I was unpacking. Sure wish my brain had caught up then and realized I was missing limes.
Any...who...this was a good recipe. I didn't put in as much cumin as it lists, and that's because a little cumin goes a long way with me.
