Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup red wine
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, pour the red wine.
Add Dijon mustard and whisk until fully combined with the wine.
Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking to create an emulsified mixture.
Stir in the minced garlic, fresh rosemary, and fresh thyme.
Sprinkle in the onion powder, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Mix well until evenly incorporated.
Use the marinade immediately by pouring it over your desired protein in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish.
Ensure the protein is fully coated in the marinade by turning it several times or gently massaging the bag.
Refrigerate and let the protein marinate for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours for a more intense flavor.
Remove the protein from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to allow it to come to room temperature. Discard any excess marinade.
