Easy Grill Marinade

Submitted by LifeIsGood

"This is an all-purpose marinade used at The Black Dog Restaurant in Martha's Vineyard. I love it on chicken but you could also use it over meat, vegetables or fish. If using it on white fish, omit the red wine vinegar. It's great for grilling."

 

• Ready In: 15mins
• Ingredients: 9
• Yields: 2 cups

ingredients

• 1 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 1⁄2 cup fresh lemon juice
• 1⁄4 cup red wine vinegar
• 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
• 1⁄4 cup fresh basil, chopped
• 1⁄4 cup fresh rosemary, chopped
• 8 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon kosher salt
• 2 teaspoons fresh ground black pepper

directions

1. Mix all of the ingredients together and marinate your grilling choice in a large glass container.
2. Cover and put in the refrigerator. The longer you marinate, the deeper the flavors. I usually marinate overnight.
3. Have fun grilling!

This is a great recipe that worked very well on grilled chicken breasts. It is both tangy and herb infused, both of which worked really well with the barbequed chicken. I also brushed the marinade onto the chicken, as I was grilling it, so that the chicken doesn't lose the flavour of the marinade as it was on the grill.

Excellent marinade. I used it last night on bay scallops which I then broiled. They were very flavorful and enjoyed by all but DS who hasn't acquired a taste for them...yet! I can not wait to try this recipe on chicken for the grill. Thanks for posting this wonderful recipe...it is a definite keeper. Made and reviewed for the 44th AUS/NZ Recipe Swap.

DH and I rate this a resounding 5 stars! Dh used this to marinate sirloin steaks to make us dinner the other night. I had this taped to the fridge to marinate chops but he did it with the steaks and YUMMY. Jubes this is a winner! I cannot wait to try it on ribs in the crockpot.<br/>Made for AUS/NZ swap 43. Thank you teamate

We marinaded flank steak for about 10 hours. I think it would be a better marinade for something lighter such as chicken or veggies, the acidity and the steak were good, but I think it would make the veggies pop. Made for ZWT8 trip to Australia/New Zealand. Thanks LIG!!
