For a deeper sesame flavor, lightly toast the tahini in a dry pan before adding it to the marinade. Adjust the sugar to your liking. If you prefer a less sweet marinade, reduce the amount of sugar or substitute with a sugar alternative. This marinade is also fantastic with grilled vegetables like bell peppers and zucchini.
