does any one have a recipe for an easy marinade?

Question

need a cheep easy one for chicken or beef.( not spicy )thanks

Answer 1

any oil and vinegar salad dressing works great.

Answer 2

I like a garlic citrus marinade like this one, it's so delicious and great on all meats, even pork.

1 cup orange juice (any kind)
2 tbsp white vinegar
1/2 tsp hot sauce
1-2 cloves crushed garlic (depending on the size and how strong you like it)
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp oregano
I marinade meat at least an hour depending on the size of the meat, or you can marinade up to 6 hours. I prefer not to marinade overnight because the marinade is very acidic and can break down thin cut meats a little too much.

Enjoy!

Answer 6

As said, Italian dressing is a good stand-by all the time. Another one I like, which for your purposes would probably be better for chicken than beef (also DELICIOUS with fish) is:

Mix equal parts soy sauce and dijon mustard, and splash in some vinegar...voila!

Answer 7

my personal favorite:

1 part sweet vermouth
1 part oil (olive or peanut)
1/4 part lime juice
1/4 part soy sauce
crushed garlic clove (one per steak or breast)
Pinch of rosemary for chicken marinade or
Pinch of cumin for beef marinade

Marinate in baggie with all the air squeezed out in fridge until you are ready to cook it. You can use the leftover marinade to "baste" your meat.

Answer 8

Chicken-Fat Free Italian dressing
Beef-Liquid smoke

Both marinaded over night and cooked your favorite way, grilled outdoors/backed/pan fried. Doesn't get any easier than this.

Answer 9

I got tired of using zesty italian seasoning so I began to mess around with some asian flavors.

Sometimes I marinate beef and pork and chicken with some:
soy sauce
corn starch
sesame oil
And you can try mixing together:
oyster sauce
soy sauce
worchestshire sauce

Hope you enjoy :)
Its very easy.
