Chef's Notes:
This is a excellent marinade for chicken or Long Island duck, I suggest that you marinade the poultry for 24 hours. If you choose to marinade fish fillets, only do so for only 1-2 hours. (The vinegar in the marinade will quickly cook the meat).
I do not recommend this marinade for beef or lamb.
