  1. Adding onion, 6 cloves of garlic, and ginger to lemon juice and olive oil gives you a wonderfully flavourful combination - the chili powder an unexpected touch that makes this marinade special. Have been doing skewers as starts/appetizers for our outdoor cookouts - this one went over big time!I think it would be great for chicken as well. One can't have too many combinations of marinades for those summer BBQ's! Thank you Jewelies - have added this to my collection.
     
  2. Totally blah & tasteless!
     
  3. Yummy! Even those that don't like spicy loved these. Definitely on my make again soon list.
     
  4. Really tasty shrimp recipe that is sure to please a variety of picky eaters. I added a small splash of soy sauce to the marinade. I think that this marinade would also be excellent with tofu, chicken or fish fillets. Thanks!
     
  5. These were really good. I used my George Foreman and they were ready in no time! Even though they had the ginger and the chili powder they were fairly mild. I'll make these again! Thank you Jewelies!
