Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce.
Add the Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and brown sugar to the bowl, and whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Stir in the chopped rosemary, thyme, black pepper, and kosher salt. Mix thoroughly to distribute the herbs and spices evenly.
