I too tried this recipie the first time and thought that the flavor was too subtle. I really enjoy the flavor combination of lime cilantro so I kicked it up a bit and added more lime and more cilantro. I did not seed the jalepenos in hopes that it would have a little more kick. And since it was all pureed, I did not see any in the marinade when it was completed. The marinade tasted wonderful and had a nice kick to it. I also put them in a vaccum sealed bag which I understand also helps pull the flavor in.
I will admit I have not tried them yet since I tweeked it. But I think I will make a little more of the marinade and brush it on just before serving to ensure the kick I tasted when I tried the marinade.

I love this recipe. My husband didn't care for the avocado dip. He just prefers it on chips, but I loved it! : Keeper & very flavorful.
