Dino's Chicken Recipe Possibly Found
For those of you not familiar with the LA area restaurants:

Mind blowing chicken and fries. Just need to know what's in the marinade.
In a discussion about this chicken, someone added the following:
"Here's a clue I can offer you. The chicken and fries were very much like the portugese chicken and fries I'd had in Montreal on a visit. Just spicier. But same type of marinade, same style of serving it over fries."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piri_piri#Piri_piri_sauce
Piri-piri sauce (used as a seasoning or marinade) is Portuguese in origin and "especially prevalent in Angola, Namibia, Mozambique and South Africa".[6] It is made from crushed chillies, citrus peel, onion, garlic, pepper, salt, lemon juice, bay leaves, paprika, pimiento, basil, oregano, and tarragon.[7
]That combination sounds damn good, but I can't find a good recipe, although I did find this:

Anyone want to try making this and telling us whether it tastes similar, if you've tried Dino's, or just amazing.

Here's a video (bless you tube!) of the place I went to in Montreal. You can see, the chicken looks very similar and the sauce is used as a marinade and, fresh sauce applied as topping.

Dino's was spicier and had more vinegar - but very close.
