I made a few changes... replaced most of the coriander with more cumin, used the juice and zest of one lemon, and used boneless/skinless thighs. Sliced it and made a pita sandwich with hummus and tzatziki. The results were very moist and good.

This recipe is awesome. Even using a hot grill the chicken comes out very moist and tender. We refrigerate and/or freeze our leftovers, and even the reheated chicken is moist and tender.
