Description
A versatile grilled marinade perfect for chicken, pork, beef, shrimp, tofu, and vegetables. Sweet, savory, and tangy, it’s a must-have for easy weeknight dinners.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt (optional)
Instructions
- Whisk the marinade until the honey is fully dissolved and the oil and soy look evenly combined.
- Coat your protein or veggies in a bag or shallow dish so the marinade touches every surface.
- Marinate in the fridge (20–45 minutes for veggies, 30 minutes to 2 hours for meat).
- Preheat the grill to medium-high and oil the grates.
- Grill the food until nicely charred and cooked through, flipping as needed.
- Rest meats for 5 minutes before slicing.
Notes
For a spicy version, add sriracha or red pepper flakes. For citrus flavors, replace balsamic with lemon juice.
