Ingredients
- 0.5 cup olive oil
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 0.25 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, and honey. Whisk until well blended.
Step 2
Add Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and fresh rosemary to the bowl. Mix thoroughly to distribute flavors evenly.
Step 3
Stir in lemon juice, black pepper, and, if desired, red pepper flakes for a hint of heat.
Step 4
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add a pinch of salt if necessary, depending on the saltiness of the soy sauce used.
Step 5
Pour the marinade over your choice of protein or vegetables. Ensure all pieces are coated evenly.
Step 6
Allow the marinade to work its magic by refrigerating the covered dish for at least 30 minutes, but ideally 2-4 hours. For stronger flavor, marinate overnight.
Step 7
Remove protein or vegetables from the marinade and cook as desired (grill, roast, or pan-sear). Discard any leftover marinade that has come into contact with raw meat.
Step 8
Serve and enjoy the infused, bold flavors of Alicia's Marinade!
