Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 0.25 cup Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce until well combined.
Add the honey, minced garlic, and Dijon mustard, and continue whisking until the honey is fully dissolved.
Sprinkle in the black pepper, dried oregano, and paprika, mixing thoroughly to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
Place your choice of meat, poultry, or fish into a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the protein, ensuring it is fully coated.
Seal the bag (pressing out excess air) or cover the dish with plastic wrap, then refrigerate.
For optimal flavor, marinate beef or pork for at least 4-12 hours, chicken for 2-6 hours, and fish for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
When ready to cook, remove the protein from the marinade, allowing excess liquid to drip off. Discard the used marinade.
Cook your protein using your preferred method (grilling, baking, pan-searing, etc.) and enjoy!
