Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cups olive oil
- 0.25 cups soy sauce
- 0.25 cups apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper, freshly ground
- 0.25 teaspoons red pepper flakes (optional)
- 0.25 cups water
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, honey, and Dijon mustard until well combined.
Add the minced garlic, chopped rosemary, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using) to the mixture. Stir until evenly distributed.
Gradually stir in the water to slightly dilute the marinade and adjust the consistency if necessary.
Place your chosen meat (chicken, beef, pork, or lamb) in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.
Pour the marinade over the meat, ensuring it is completely coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap.
Refrigerate the meat for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours for maximum flavor. Turn the meat occasionally to ensure even marination.
When ready to cook, remove the meat from the marinade and discard any excess marinade. Cook the meat to your preferred method (grill, bake, pan-fry, etc.).
Enjoy your tender and flavorful meal, complemented by this versatile marinade!
