    I'm commenting on the marinade only--made a half batch for some bone-in chicken thighs and cooked on a gas grill. It was tasty and reminiscent of our local Peruvian joint, though I'm sure it would be even better on a whole bird using the recipe's method. I did leave out the salt, figuring the soy sauce would be plenty salty enough, and found this to be true.
