Marinade tasted like olive oil, the other flavors did not shine through. Would not make again.
I think it is delicious, although I do use a high quality Hon-Mirin (the real stuff), not the typical supermarket Aji-Mirin that relies on added sugar (and tastes like slightly odd corn syrup). Also, note that the recipe says to serve on the side. The title notwithstanding, this is a dipping sauce, not a marinade.
Good basic recipe but increased soy. Add ginger and sesame oil for additional flavor.
On readers' advice, I switched some of the olive oil for sesame and something bland. I upped the soy just a little. I cook with wine but I don't drink it and the mirin's raw alcohol taste was too much for me! An alternative please!
Used 2 tbs olive oil & 1 tbs toasted sesame, 1/2 tsp pepper & 1/4 salt. Garlic and ginger optional.
Better use sesame oil
