In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, and maple syrup until well combined.
Add the minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme leaves, paprika, Dijon mustard, ground black pepper, and salt to the bowl. Whisk again to create a cohesive marinade.
Place the chicken breasts (or your preferred protein) in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow baking dish.
Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated.
Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 2 hours, but preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
When ready to cook, remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the remaining liquid.
Prepare the chicken using your preferred method—grill, bake, or pan-sear—until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Serve hot and enjoy your flavorful Sudbury-style chicken!
