This looks delicious. How did you managed to get such a wonderful dark colour? Is it the soy sauce or did you add brown sugar?
I agree with Ivy, this really looks amazing! I also wondered how you got the dark color. Was it marinated with some dark soy sauce?
You have a very nice looking blog too. Do you use Twitter so I can follow you for more of your recipes?
Hi,
Yes, the dark colour is from the dark soy sauce. I didn’t marinate the meat before hand. Just add the soy sauce with the sugar and the lime at the end.
