Instructions

Whisk all of the ingredients together in a large bowl.
For marinating, submerge your protein or vegetables completely in the marinade, or seal them with the marinade in a plastic bag. Marinate in the refrigerator until ready to cook.

Notes

Makes about 2 cups.
You'll get GREAT flavor with this sauce based on the ingredients combination alone, but the heat factor is adjustable by the inclusion of chili flakes.
Use hotter peppers to really up that heat factor, or sprinkle in a spicy chili powder to your preference. You can lower the heat by skipping the chili flakes altogether.
