Have you marinated the chicken for more than an hour for a deeper taste or what I am asking is can you over marinate for this dish?

I don't know about this recipe in particular, but since you can over marinate with anything, I'd have to assume the answer is, yes.

I've not had the time/patience to marinate chicken in this type of marinade for more than a few hours.
