      This is our very favorite grilling marinade... We add 1 tablespoon paprika to kick it up a little.

      This marinade tastes great and goes together very easily. I was worried about the amount of salt and to a small extent my worry was justified. I marinade veggies: asparagus, broccoli crowns, green onions, whole mushrooms, and sliced carrots. I marinaded them about 4 hours and then grilled them. The only veg that had a sodium overload was the carrots and to a smaller extent the mushrooms. So Avoid those 2 if marinading veggies. Other than that the flavor was great especially the broccoli. I waould do this again in a heartbeat!

      My DD used this recipe tonight to marinade steak for kabobs. We all give it 5 stars for simplicity and 5 stars for taste. We will be using this recipe again and again. Thanks so much.

      Very nice. I think next time I will add a little less lemon, not much, but a little. I used chicken breasts and grilled them. Very tender. Thank you for the lovely recipe.

      Oh wow! This chicken turned out succulent after I marinated it according to your recipe! Great job Geema! Let me tell yall about the slight modifications I made; first of all, I used two chicken breasts and cut them into large pieces, then submerged them into a container after I had mixed the ingredients. I added some cayenne (cause I add it to everything ;-) and then I marinated it for about 4-5 hours. My honey grilled it and it turned out absolutely perfect! this one is definitely a keeper for me!

      This is one of the best marinade's that I have used for chicken. I did chicken breasts and only had time for them to rest for about 2 hours and they were still delicious. My Tabasco sauce has gone missing so I subbed with some red pepper flakes for heat. I served the chicken on top of a Spinach and Strawberry Salad. I have it tucked into my cookbook so I can find it again --- soon! Thanks for posting your recipe.

      We tried this tonight and did it with chicken thighs. Was very tasty! Next time I might add more Tabasco (we love spicy foods), but this is a keeper and I will definitely make it again!
