Lots of flavor. I marinated for 1 hour. Grilled the steak 3 minutes pre side. They were 8 ounces each. I found the mariade and relish to be more then enough so you can cut back to make half of what is called for! I skipped the cinnamon and because DH just doesn`t like it in more then desserts,the cilantro I just added to mine just love it, skipped the vinegar and use the juice of one lime which was plenty. But I did use the 1/2 teaspoon five spice in the marinade and he didn`t complain. This is a quick, easy, healthy, tasty meal! Thanks to Davey!

Simply Perfect!!<br/><br/>We have a family of six children so we did increase everything but the results were perfect. Not one of the six, ages 3 to 15, left anything behind on their plates. Since that first night I have modified a few things just because I can%u2019t help but do so. When I find something this good I love to play around with it and have since used Salmon and a few other seafood%u2019s, with amazing results. As a side note, you can cut the relish in half as there is plenty; I don%u2019t because of the size of my family but a dinner for two would have extra left over for sure.<br/><br/>Also, we live at 7,000 feet so as always we needed to cook for just a little longer in all cases.<br/><br/>This has quickly become a family favorite and we are having it again tomorrow night. Thank you for a wonderful quick, easy, and healthy recipe Davey!!
