I made this with the accompanying shrimp recipe and also served with the cilantro butter. It was easy (I think I spent 15 minutes or less prepping the marinade) and so yummy. I either forgot the sugar or used white sugar (I can't recall but I know I didn't get my brown sugar out ... :/ we had a hard time stopping ourselves from eating the whole thing. Even my 1 year old kept going and saying "nummy nummy tummy!" Cilantro butter is a nice addition that brings this up to the 5th star.
