Lemon & Basil Chicken (or any meat!) Marinade

Fresh lemon juice, basil and more combine to make a quick and flavorful marinade for chicken...and more!

Author: Dash Of Evans
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup Lemon Juice (about 1 lemon)
  • 1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 Tablespoon Red Wine Vinegar
  • 1 shallot thinly sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 Tablespoon Dried Basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt & Pepper
Instructions

  1. In a mason jar or bowl, add all ingredients. Whisk with a fork.

  2. Pour over chicken thighs and let marinade for up to 4 hours. Also great with pork chops, steak or even shrimp!

Recipe Notes

Enough marinade for about 2-3 pounds of meat. I love Litehouse flash dried Basil--adds tons of flavor! You can sub fresh basil, too!
