Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha (optional, for heat)
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, and sesame oil.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the bowl, stirring well to incorporate the flavors.
If you prefer a bit of heat, mix in the Sriracha.
Stir in the lime juice for a fresh, zesty finish.
Whisk the mixture thoroughly until smooth and well-blended.
Use the marinade immediately by pouring it over your choice of protein (chicken, beef, pork, seafood, or tofu), ensuring it is evenly coated. Cover and allow the protein to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for deeper flavor.
Store any unused marinade in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
