Fresh Herb & Lemon Marinade

Submitted by P48422

"Yet another marinade recipe I got from an old issue of Food & Wine. I love this one with chicken and fish. Don't marinate fish too long in this, though - the acid from the lemon juice will start to "cook" it. No more than an hour or so. This marinade is especially nice in the summer when fresh herbs are so abundant."
